03 / Gaze-aware computing

Computer-tested prototype

Vizon

Give AI the scene—and the point of attention.

Vizon combines eye tracking with an outward-facing camera so an AI agent can interpret what the wearer is asking about. Gaze supplies the point of focus; the scene camera supplies the surrounding context.

01 / The interaction

What changes when an agent knows where you look?

The wearer looks at an object and asks about it. A calibrated eye-tracking model maps the visual focus into the outward-facing camera view, helping the agent resolve which part of the scene matters.

Custom eye-facing and scene-facing cameras provide distinct inputs.

02 / Research & engineering

What went into it.

Data & annotation

Eye samples were collected and pupils annotated to develop the custom tracking approach.

Model development

The team trained an eye-tracking model and reduced its size for edge processing.

Wearer calibration

A calibration step adapts the gaze mapping to the person using the glasses.

Interaction studies

Earlier explorations paired gaze with EEG-based target confirmation. Related neural-interface work develops this as a complementary input alongside voice and visual focus.

Optics & cameras

The prototype combines birdbath display optics, an eye-facing GC0308 camera and an outward-facing camera.

Portable computing

A separate SpacemiT computing puck is the intended local-model host. Working Qwen voice chat on SpacemiT provides a supporting foundation.

03 / Progress

Built. Tested. Next.

Developed

Custom eye-tracking model

Sample collection, pupil annotation, training and model reduction establish the tracking foundation.

Tested

Computer-connected prototype

The glasses, eye tracking and calibration have been tested with a computer.

Established

Local voice foundation

Qwen voice chat is working on SpacemiT as separate infrastructure.

Next

Portable integration

Bring eye tracking and the agent onto the carryable computing puck.

The computer-tested glasses and the intended portable system are different stages. Local voice chat is a supporting capability; full portable Vizon integration remains planned.
