Abstract

The present application discloses an information observation method and an information observation apparatus, and relates to the field of multimedia information processing technologies. The method comprises: detecting a position of a sightline focusing point of an observer; in response to that it is detected that the sightline focusing point of the observer moves away from an observed object, judging whether the observer has observed all important information on the observed object; and in response to that it is judged that the observer has not observed all important information on the observed object, reminding the observer. For the method and the apparatus in embodiments of the present application, from the perspective of an actual observation behavior of an observer, a position of a sightline focusing point of the observer is detected to determine an observation behavior of the observer for important information, so as to radically prevent missing of important information.

Claims (32)

1. An information observation method, wherein the method comprises:

detecting a position of a sightline focusing point of an observer, wherein the detecting a position of a sightline focusing point of an observer comprises: capturing at least one image presented by a fundus of an eye of the observer; adjusting at least one imaging parameter of an optical path between the eye of the observer and a capture position, so as to capture at least one image that meets at least one predetermined definition standard; and according to the at least one imaging parameter of the optical path between the eye of the observer and the capture position in response to that the at least one image that meets the predetermined definition standard is captured and an optical parameter of the eye, calculating the position of the focusing point;

in response to that it is detected that the sightline focusing point of the observer moves away from an observed object, judging whether the observer has observed important information on the observed object; and

in response to that it is judged that the observer has not observed the important information on the observed object, reminding the observer.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the adjusting at least one imaging parameter of an optical path between the eye of the observer and a capture position comprises:

adjusting the focal length of an optical component on the optical path between the eye of the observer and the capture position and/or a position of the optical component in the optical path.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the adjusting at least one imaging parameter of an optical path between the eye of the observer and a capture position, so as to capture at least one image that meets at least one predetermined definition standard comprises:

according to positions of a pupil associated with different eye optical axis directions, transferring the at least one image presented by the fundus to the capture position respectively.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the in response to that it is detected that the sightline focusing point of the observer moves away from an observed object, judging whether the observer has observed important information on the observed object comprises:

in response to that it is detected that the sightline focusing point of the observer moves out of an area corresponding to the observed object for a first preset period of time, judging that the sightline focusing point of the observer moves away from the observed object.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the in response to that it is detected that the sightline focusing point of the observer moves away from an observed object, judging whether the observer has observed important information on the observed object comprises:

in response to that it is detected that the observed object changed, judging that the sightline focusing point of the observer moves away from the observed object.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the in response to that it is detected that the sightline focusing point of the observer moves away from an observed object, judging whether the observer has observed important information on the observed object comprises:

in response to that it is detected that the position of the sightline focusing point of the observer falls within an area corresponding to important information for a second preset period of time, judging that the observer has observed the corresponding important information.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the in response to that it is detected that the sightline focusing point of the observer moves away from an observed object, judging whether the observer has observed important information on the observed object comprises:

in response to that it is detected that the position of the sightline focusing point of the observer falls within an area corresponding to important information a preset number of times, judging that the observer has observed the corresponding important information.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:

identifying the important information on the observed object.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the identifying the important information on the observed object comprises:

identifying the important information on the observed object according to content of the observed object.

10. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the identifying the important information on the observed object comprises:

identifying the important information on the observed object according to metadata of the observed object.

11. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:

labeling important information that has been observed by the observer and/or an area corresponding to the important information.

12. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium, wherein the computer readable storage medium comprises an executable instruction, and when a central processing unit of an information observation apparatus executes the executable instruction, the executable instruction is configured to cause the information observation apparatus to execute the following method:

detecting a position of a sightline focusing point of an observer, wherein the detecting a position of a sightline focusing point of an observer comprises: capturing at least one image presented by a fundus of an eye of the observer; adjusting at least one imaging parameter of an optical path between the eye of the observer and a capture position, so as to capture at least one image that meets at least one predetermined definition standard; and according to the at least one imaging parameter of the optical path between the eye of the observer and the capture position in response to that the at least one image that meets the predetermined definition standard is captured and an optical parameter of the eye, calculating the position of the focusing point;

in response to that it is detected that the sightline focusing point of the observer moves away from an observed object, judging whether the observer has observed important information on the observed object; and

in response to that it is judged that the observer has not observed the important information on the observed object, reminding the observer.

13. An information observation apparatus, comprising a central processing unit and a memory, wherein the memory stores a computer execution instruction, and the central processing unit is connected to the memory through a communication bus, and when the information observation apparatus runs, the central processing unit executes the computer execution instruction stored in the memory, to cause the information observation apparatus to execute the following method:

detecting a position of a sightline focusing point of an observer, wherein the detecting a position of a sightline focusing point of an observer comprises: capturing at least one image presented by a fundus of an eye of the observer; adjusting at least one imaging parameter of an optical path between the eye of the observer and a capture position, so as to capture at least one image that meets at least one predetermined definition standard; and according to the at least one imaging parameter of the optical path between the eye of the observer and the capture position in response to that the at least one image that meets the predetermined definition standard is captured and an optical parameter of the eye, calculating the position of the focusing point;

in response to that it is detected that the sightline focusing point of the observer moves away from an observed object, judging whether the observer has observed important information on the observed object; and

in response to that it is judged that the observer has not observed the important information on the observed object, reminding the observer.
