Technologies to measure gaze direction and pupil reactivity have become efficient, cheap, and compact and are finding increasing use in many fields, including gaming, marketing, driver safety, military, and healthcare. Besides offering numerous useful applications, the rapidly expanding technology raises serious privacy concerns. Through the lens of advanced data analytics, gaze patterns can reveal much more information than a user wishes and expects to give away. Drawing from a broad range of scientific disciplines, this paper provides a structured overview of personal data that can be inferred from recorded eye activities. Our analysis of the literature shows that eye tracking data may implicitly contain information about a user's biometric identity, gender, age, ethnicity, body weight, personality traits, drug consumption habits, emotional state, skills and abilities, fears, interests, and sexual preferences. Certain eye tracking measures may even reveal specific cognitive processes and can be used to diagnose various physical and mental health conditions. By portraying the richness and sensitivity of gaze data, this paper provides an important basis for consumer education, privacy impact assessments, and further research into the societal implications of eye tracking.

Vision tracking is a well-studied framework in vision computing. Developing a robust visual tracking system is challenging because of the sudden change in object motion, cluttered background, partial occlusion and camera motion. In this study, the state-of-the art visual tracking methods are reviewed and different categories are discussed. The overall visual tracking process is divided into four stages-object initialization, appearance modeling, motion estimation, and object localization. Each of these stages is briefly elaborated and related researches are discussed. A rapid growth of visual tracking algorithms is observed in last few decades. A comprehensive review is reported on different performance metrics to evaluate the efficiency of visual tracking algorithms which might help researchers to identify new avenues in this area. Various application areas of the visual tracking are also discussed at the end of the study.

“…Image data is obtained in video-oculography operated system using one or more cameras [23,27]. Typical video-oculography systems use glints produced on the surface of the eye through an illumination source, such as near-infrared (NIR) LEDs with typical wavelengths of 850 ± 30 nm, and in turn, gaze locations are estimated from the movement of the eye pupil in relation to the illuminated glint positions [34].…”

High-tech augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) methods are on a constant rise; however, the interaction between the user and the assistive technology is still challenged for an optimal user experience centered around the desired activity. This review presents a range of signal sensing and acquisition methods utilized in conjunction with the existing high-tech AAC platforms for speech disabled individuals, including imaging methods, touch-enabled systems, mechanical and electro-mechanical access, breath-activated methods, and brain computer interfaces (BCI). The listed AAC sensing modalities are compared in terms of ease of access, affordability, complexity, portability, and typical conversational speeds. A revelation of the associated AAC signal processing, encoding, and retrieval highlights the roles of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) in the development of intelligent AAC solutions. The demands and the affordability of most systems were found to hinder the scale of usage of high-tech AAC. Further research is indeed needed for the development of intelligent AAC applications reducing the associated costs and enhancing the portability of the solutions for a real user’s environment. The consolidation of natural language processing with current solutions also needs to be further explored for the amelioration of the conversational speeds. The recommendations for prospective advances in coming high-tech AAC are addressed in terms of developments to support mobile health communicative applications.
