System and method for capturing spatially and temporally coherent eye gaze and hand data during performance of a manual task

摘要

An eye gaze and hand data capturing system for use with a human performing a manual task (such as a surgical procedure) with a hand-held instrument (such as a surgical instrument), includes subsystems for tracking pupil position head position and orientation, hand position, and force applied by the hand to an instrument, all operatively connected to a computer that repeatedly determines an eye gaze vector, the hand position and orientation, and the force applied to the instrument and records such information as a record of spatially and temporally coherent data in a database.
