N2 - Our eyes consume the visual field around us, and the brain processes that information as sight and visual content. By incorporating eye-tracking into the design process, we can in some way reverse that process and begin to rethink the role our eye-brain interaction plays instead of as a method of active external input rather than internal processing. Our research developed a prototype application, the Eye-Tracking Voxel Environment Sculptor (EVES), that incorporates eye-tracking as the designed actuator, extending our visual sense as an active design generator. The eye-tracking data garnered from the designer when interacting in EVES is directly utilized as an input within a modelling virtual environment to manipulate and sculpt voxels. We have tested how eye-tracking offers novel possibilities as a Human-Computer Interface within the Virtual Reality Aided Design (VRAD) realm and presents such methodology's potentials.
