    Abstract

    Eye gaze plays an essential role in social interaction which influences our perception of others. It is most likely that we can perceive the existence of another intentional subject through the act of cathing one another's eyes. Based on the notion of perceptual crossing, we aim to establish a meaningful social interaction that emerges out of the perceptual crossing between a person and an everyday object by exploiting the gazing behavior of the person as the input modality for the system. We investigated in literature the experiments that adopt the perceptual crossing as their foundation, lessons learned from literature were used as input for a concept to create meaningful social interaction. We used an eye-tracker to measure gaze behavior that allows the participant to interact with the object by using their eyes through active exploration. It creates a situation where both of them mutually becoming aware of each other's existence. Further, we discuss the motivation for this research, present a preliminary experiment that influences our decision and our directions for future work.
