Gaze Control for Work and Play

Edited by:

Deadline: November 14,  2008

PsychNology invites authors to submit papers for a special issue on Gaze Control for Work and Play. This special issue follows the COGAIN 2007 and 2008 conferences (see www.cogain.org), but we welcome all contributions, whether they build on work presented at a COGAIN conference or not. The focus of the special issue will be on gaze control, both for “serious” applications (“work”) as well as for entertainment (“play”). Areas relevant to the special issue include:
• Eye typing
• Gaze-controlled menus
• Gaze control for graphical user interfaces (GUIs)
• Gaze control for wheelchairs
• Gaze-controlled games

Manuscripts that do not fall in one of these particular areas but follow the general theme of the special issue are also welcome. Gaze control is of particular value for those who cannot use more conventional forms of control, such as a keyboard, mouse, or wheelchair joystick. However, we also encourage submissions on mainstream applications of gaze control that are suitable for disabled and able-bodied users alike.
