JHU IEEE Distinguished Speaker | Dr. Boris Gramatikov

Monday, April 25 at 5:30pm

Hackerman Hall, B17 3400 N Charles St, Baltimore, MD 21218, USA

IEEE @ JHU would like to invite you to the fifth event in our IEEE Distinguished Speaker Seminar Series:

Dr. Boris Gramatikov
Asst. Professor, Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins
Past Chair & Present Director for Continuing EE Education, IEEE Baltimore

presents an exciting talk on eye-tracking biomedical technologies entitled

"Detecting eye fixation using retinal information – from biophysics to optoelectronics and instrumentation"

Abstract:
Precise eye tracking is a challenging task, and as a rule requires calibration. This work explores the possibility of employing retinal information to truly identify the direction of gaze with the help of the birefringent properties of the Henle fibers – with or without calibration. Progress on the development of a device for checking proper alignment of the eyes for diagnostic purposes will be reported. Special attention will be paid to electronics, optomechanical designs, computer modeling, computing hardware, signal processing methods and more.
