Abstract

A method and system for detecting intentional selection of a user interface element using a binocular display. A first visual stimulus is presented stereoscopically to a user's eyes at a first virtual depth perceived by the user's depth perception and overlapping a first position within a field of view of the user. A second visual stimulus is presented stereoscopically to the user's eyes at a second virtual depth perceived by the user's depth perception and overlapping the first position. Neural signals are obtained from a neural signal capture device configured to detect neural activity of the user. In response to determining, based on the neural signals, that the user's eyes are focused on either the first visual stimulus or second visual stimulus, a computing system is placed into a first state or second state, respectively, associated with the first visual stimulus or second visual stimulus, respectively.
