Abstract

We present ECSGlasses: eye contact sensing glasses that report when people look at their wearer. When eye contact is detected, the glasses stream this information to appliances to inform these about the wearer’s engagement. We present one example of such an appliance, eyeBlog, a conversational video blogging system. The system uses eye contact information to decide when to record video from the glasses’ camera.
