Description
Abstract. Augmented reality and virtual reality (AR/VR) systems contain several different sensors including images sensors for gesture recognition, head pose tracking and pupil/eye tracking. The data of all these sensors must be processed by a host processor in real-time. For future AR/VR systems, new sensing technologies are required to fulfill the demands in power consumption and performance. Currently pupil detection is performed with images on resolutions around 300x300 pixels and above. Therefore, deep neural networks (DNN) need host platforms, which are capable to compute the DNNs with such input resolutions to process them in real-time. In this work, the image resolution for pupil detection is optimized to a resolution of 100x100 pixels. A tiny pupil detection neural network is introduced, which can be processed with the ARM Cortex-M55 and the Embedded Machine Learning (ML) processorArm Ethos-U55 with a performance of 189 frames per second (FPS) with high detection rates. This allows to reduce the power consumption of the communication between image sensor and host for future AR/VR devices.
