Utilização do Rastreamento Ocular para Visualização do Local de Atenção em Sistemas de Edição Colaborativos

Awareness is the knowledge about the present and past group’s activities and it is a relevant question for cooperative work. There are many devices that supplies awareness information in synchronous collaborative editing systems. However, the current awareness devices have restrictions to accomplish effective awareness and to capture the focus of attention, e.g. identify the exact place of the participants’ attentions. This paper presents an awareness device for synchronous collaborative editing systems called TeleEye that provide information about the place of the participant’s attentions during a collaborative session by means of eye tracking.
