  In this paper a review is presented of the research on eye gaze estimation
techniques and applications, that has progressed in diverse ways over the past
two decades. Several generic eye gaze use-cases are identified: desktop, TV,
head-mounted, automotive and handheld devices. Analysis of the literature leads
to the identification of several platform specific factors that influence gaze
tracking accuracy. A key outcome from this review is the realization of a need
to develop standardized methodologies for performance evaluation of gaze
tracking systems and achieve consistency in their specification and comparative
evaluation. To address this need, the concept of a methodological framework for
practical evaluation of different gaze tracking systems is proposed.
