Abstract
Information is transferred interactively between a user and an information processor by establishing the direction of the user's gaze or visual focus with relation to portions of a viewing surface and thereafter the direction of the user's gaze or visual focus to a specific portion of the viewing surface conveys information. The direction of a user's gaze is established through a reflected signal from the operator's eyeball.
