Abstract

This document relates to employing physiological feedback to aid a user in targeting objects using a computing device. One example relates to a method or technique that can include receiving a user attention signal conveying where a user directs attention. The method or technique can also include, based on the user attention signal, identifying a predicted object that the user intends to target with a targeting mechanism and outputting a visual identification of the predicted object. The method or technique can also include receiving a user reaction signal conveying a physiological reaction of the user to the visual identification of the predicted object. The method or technique can also include, in an instance when the physiological reaction of the user indicates an error, identifying another predicted object that the user intends to target with the targeting mechanism.
