LINE-OF-SIGHT DETECTION DEVICE, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE LINE-OF-SIGHT DETECTION DEVICE, METHOD FOR DETECTING POSITION OF CORNEAL REFLECTION IMAGE, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM
To provide a line-of-sight detection device that enables detection of a line of sight (starting point and line-of-sight direction) with a simple configuration.SOLUTION: A line-of-sight detection device detecting a person's line of sight comprises: an imaging unit 10 that photographs an image of the person's face; a projection unit 20 that projects predetermined pattern light on the person's face; a control unit 30 that controls the presence/absence of the projection of pattern light performed by the imaging unit 10 and projection unit 20; and a line-of-sight detection processing unit 40 that detects a line of sight from the image of the person's face photographed by the imaging unit.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1【課題】簡易な構成での視線(起点及び視線方向)の検出を可能とする視線検出装置を提供すること。【解決手段】人物の視線を検出する視線検出装置において、人物の顔を撮影する撮像部10と、所定のパターン光を前記人物の顔に投影する投影部20と、撮像部10及び投影部20による前記パターン光の投影の有無を制御する制御部30と、前記撮像部により撮影された人物の顔の画像から視線を検出する視線検出処理部40と、を装備する。【選択図】図1
