Abstract
Calibrating an eye tracking system based at least in part on a user interface element(s) presented on a display panel(s) of a head-mounted display (THMID) is disclosed. A processor(s) may present a user interface element on a display panel(s) of a HMD, and may receive, from a handheld controller, user input data indicating that a user wearing the H/ID has provided user input associated with the user interface element via the handheld controller. In response to the receiving of the user input data from the handheld controller, the processor(s) may receive, from an eye tracking sensor(s) of the HMD, eye data associated with one or more eyes of the user, and may calibrate the eye tracking system based at least in part on the eye data and location data indicating a location on the display panel(s) where the user interface element is presented.
