humaneyebased

Humaneyebased is a neologism used to describe approaches, technologies, and research that are anchored in the properties of the human visual system and the anatomy of the eye. In this sense, work labeled as humaneyebased prioritizes how information is perceived, processed, and attended to by human observers, rather than focusing solely on computational metrics or abstract data.

The term is not standardized and its usage varies by field. It often overlaps with human-computer interaction, perceptual psychology, and visual design, and it can be applied to both experimental research and practical design guidelines. The common thread is an emphasis on perceptual constraints, attention, and comfort, and on using insights about the eye to inform decisions about information layout, display technology, and interaction methods.

Applications and methods typically associated with humaneyebased work include eye-tracking studies to map attention and perceptual load, design practices that optimize contrast, color, and layout for human visibility, and the use of perceptual models to guide rendering and display systems. In addition, eye-based biometric technologies such as iris or retina recognition are sometimes described within this umbrella when they are evaluated or deployed with explicit consideration of human visual factors. In immersive environments, foveated rendering and gaze-directed interfaces are examples where human eye perception drives technical choices.

Limitations and challenges include variation in visual acuity across individuals, context-dependent perception, and privacy concerns related to gaze data. When applied thoughtfully, humaneyebased approaches aim to improve usability, accessibility, and the efficiency of information presentation while respecting human perceptual capabilities.
