Gaze-Based Interaction

Also known as: Gaze Input, Eye-Gaze Interaction, Gaze Control

An interaction method where users control digital interfaces by directing their visual gaze at on-screen targets, typically detected through eye tracking or head orientation tracking. In accessibility contexts, gaze-based interaction provides an alternative input modality for people who cannot use traditional controllers, keyboards, or touchscreens due to motor impairments, making digital content navigable through eye movement alone.
