In this paper we present the preliminary analysis and results of a novel robotic system that allows a user to paint with eyes, using an eye tracker device and a collaborative robot. Eye tracking is a sensing technology that allows a computer to detect where a person is looking (point of gaze). This technology is used to control the motion of a collaborative robot that paints on a canvas based on the detected input. Results show the feasibility of the robotic system and its possible future application as a tool for artistic and creative painting by people with disabilities who cannot use their hands, or that have lost the control of all or part of their muscles.

Abstract

In this paper we present the preliminary analysis and results of a novel robotic system that allows a user to paint with eyes, using an eye tracker device and a collaborative robot. Eye tracking is a sensing technology that allows a computer to detect where a person is looking (point of gaze). This technology is used to control the motion of a collaborative robot that paints on a canvas based on the detected input. Results show the feasibility of the robotic system and its possible future application as a tool for artistic and creative painting by people with disabilities who cannot use their hands, or that have lost the control of all or part of their muscles.
