Abstract

We present how gaze detection can be used to enhance the Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP) format, a dynamic text presentation technique suitable for mobile devices. A camera mounted on the device is used to monitor the reader’s gaze and control the onset of the text presentation accordingly. The underlying assumptions for the technique are presented together with a description of a prototype, Smart Bailando, as well as our directions for further work.
