Gazing the Text for Fun and Profit

Reading digital books is becoming more and more common, and modern interface technologies offer a wide range of methods to interact with the user. However, few of them have been researched with respect to their impact on the reading experience. With a special focus on eye tracking devices we investigate how novel text interaction concepts can be created. We present an analysis of the eyeBook, which provides real time effects according to the read process. We then focus on multi-modal interaction and the usage of EEG devices for the recording of evoked emotions.
