Eye Gaze Controlled Virtual Keyboard

Eye gaze technology has emerged as a transformative tool within Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), offering innovative solutions for individuals with physical disabilities. A review of the development and application of an eye gaze-controlled virtual keyboard demonstrates its potential to facilitate typing without the use of hands or fingers, empowering users with limited motor abilities. Key challenges in gaze detection, eye-blink differentiation, and interaction reliability are addressed, contributing to the fields of assistive technology and inclusive design. Experimental results validate the system’s usability and accuracy, emphasizing its potential to improve the quality of life for users with mobility impairments.
