Abstract

An image system with an imaging device obtains and presents at least one image. An eye gaze system associated with the imaging device determines a non-closed loop portion of the at least one image that an eye of a viewer observes. The image system associates the at least one image with the non-closed loop portion of the at least one image. An image processor analyzes the image based at least in part on the image itself together with data representative of the gaze information to determine the content of the image, where the gaze information is a non-closed loop portion of the image that an eye of a viewer observes. The image system associates the content with the image.
