Eye gaze is considered as an effective interface because it can express a person's intention and intent. In particular, in the field of social welfare, patients with limb disabilities such as ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), SMA (spinal muscular atrophy), and Parkinson's disease have been developing gaze-based interfaces, because gaze input is less burdensome for patients who have limited operating areas due to their limb disabilities. In this study, we developed a gaze interface by detecting the iris position using a camera and approximating the eyelid shape with a Bezier curve. In addition, we have developed a system that can sound a ringing tone by staring at the camera.
