Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore eye-hand coordination skill necessary for enhancing performance from the perspective of simultaneous measurement of eye-gaze and pen tip locations during a calligraphy task. The developed simultaneous measurement system of pen tip and eye-gaze location succeeded in extracting eye-hand coordination ability necessary for acquiring a higher skill in calligraphy. Experts tended to execute eye movements preceding brush tip. The x- and y directional differences between brush tip and eye-gaze point were larger for experts. Moreover, the fluctuation of pen pressure of experts tended to be larger than that of novices.
