Actions based on Gaze Tracking
Hi,
I have a query regarding the Gaze Tracking feature in Microsoft HoloLens. Is it possible for HoloLens to trigger different actions for holograms based on gaze timer? For e.g., instead of using gestures or voice to take actions on a hologram, can a action be taken based on gaze tracking and on the basis of the time used to gaze that hologram? Are there any applications supported by HoloLens that implements this feature?
Thanks & Regards,
John

Yes, you can do this. You'd have to program it yourself, though, which should be easy.
At the AWE2017 conference a few weeks back, I saw a very cool interface based on this principle. No gestures, no clicking, and no linger-to-select. It's called "Quantum Interface" (http://quantuminterface.com/) and they actually have a patent on the use of velocity and relative motion (IIRC) in user interfaces, so be careful. They have implemented their interface on all kinds of devices, from iOS to HoloLens to ODG R7. If this is for a commercial project, you may want to look into licensing it. I've tried it on HoloLens and found it very intuitive and fast. Surprising that no one else seems to have thought of it!Bart
