US Patent 11775075 Head and eye-based gesture recognition

Aspects of the disclosure relate to identifying and utilizing head and eye gestures, using a wearable computing device. The wearable computing device may include an electrooculography electrode configured to provide first feedback to one or more processors as well as an inertial measurement unit configured to provide second feedback to the one or more processors. The first feedback may correspond to eye movement, and the second feedback may correspond to head movement. The wearable computing device may also include the one or more processors which may be configured to use the first feedback and these second feedback to determine whether the head movement and eye movement correspond to a trigger for an action as well as to cause the wearable computing device to perform the action based on the determination.
