초록

아두이노와 저가형 생체신호 증폭기를 사용하여 시선추적실험을 실시하고 결과를 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 간단한 4방향의 시선이동 인식실험과 함께, 시선을 사용하여 영어 알파벳 등을 직접 쓰는 eye-writing 인식실험을 함께 진행함으로, 새롭게 구성한 안구전도 측정장치의 실용성을 평가하고, 더 나아가 저가형 안구전도 장치가 eye-writing과 같은 복잡한 사람-컴퓨터간 상호작용도구로 활용될 수 있는지를 분석하였다. 실험을 위해서 PSL-iEOG와 아두이노를 사용하는 저가형 안구전도 측정장치가 구성되었으며, 패턴분류를 위해 dynamic positional warping과 웨이블릿 변환이 사용되었다. 실험 결과, 저가형 측정장치는 비교적 단순한 알고리즘만으로도 외부 잡음이 유입되지 않은 경우 90%에 가까운 정확도로 시선방향을 인식할 수 있었으며, eye-writing의 경우에도 5개 패턴에 대해서 90%의 중위 정확도를 달성할 수 있었다. 그러나 패턴의 숫자가 증가함에 따라 정확도가 매우 감소하여, 다양한 패턴의 직접적인 입력이라는 eye-writing의 장점을 부각하기 위해서는 저가형 장치에 특화된 알고리즘의 개발 등 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 여겨진다.

Abstract

This paper describes the experiments of gaze tracking utilizing a low-cost electrooculogram measuring device. The goal of the experiments is to verify whether the low-cost device can be used for a complicated human-computer interaction tool, such as the eye-writing. Two experiments are conducted for this goal: a simple gaze tracking of four directional eye-movements, and eye-writing—which is to draw letters or shapes in a virtual space. Eye-written alphabets were obtained by two PSL-iEOGs and an Arduino Uno; they were classified by dynamic positional warping after preprocessed by a wavelet function. The results show that the expected recognition accuracy of the four-directional recognition is close to 90% when noises are controlled, and the similar median accuracy (90.00%) was achieved for the eye-writing when the number of writing patterns are limited to five. In future works, additional algorithms for stabilizing the signal need to be developed.
