Complex Eye Movement Pattern Biometrics: The Effects of Environment and Stimulus

Abstract
This paper presents an objective evaluation of the effects of eye tracking specification and stimulus presentation on the biometric viability of complex eye movement patterns. Six spatial accuracy tiers (0.5°, 1.0°, 1.5°, 2.0°, 2.5°, 3.0°), six temporal resolution tiers (1000, 500, 250, 120, 75, 30 Hz), and five stimulus types (simple, complex, cognitive, textual, random) are evaluated to identify acceptable conditions under which to collect eye movement data. The results suggest the use of eye tracking equipment capable of at least 0.5° spatial accuracy and 250 Hz temporal resolution for biometric purposes, whereas stimulus had little effect on the biometric viability of eye movements.
