Excellent first 2025 BIGTALK by @michaelproulx.bsky.social! Preferences for eye tracking targeting, scan paths not fixations for activity recognition, implicit gaze as unique fingerprint, shoutout to Bristol’s egocentric computer vision @dimadamen.bsky.social. Human experience and inclusion are key!
