US Patent 11301677 Deep learning for three dimensional (3D) gaze prediction

There is disclosed a computer implemented eye tracking system and corresponding method and computer readable storage medium, for detecting three dimensional, 3D, gaze, by obtaining at least one head pose parameter using a head pose prediction algorithm, the head pose parameter(s) comprising one or more of a head position, pitch, yaw, or roll; and to input the at least one head pose parameter along with at least one image of a user's eye, generated from a 2D image captured using an image sensor associated with the eye tracking system, into a neural network configured to generate 3D gaze information based on the at least one head pose parameter and the at least one eye image.
