contents Engaging with AI assistants to gather essential information in a timely manner is becoming increasingly common. Traditional activation methods, like wake words such as Hey Siri, Ok Google, and Hey Alexa, are constrained by technical challenges such as false activations, recognition errors, and discomfort in public settings. Similarly, activating AI systems via physical buttons imposes strict interactive limitations as it demands particular physical actions, which hinders fluid and spontaneous communication with AI. Our approach employs eye-tracking technology within AR glasses to discern a user's intention to engage with the AI assistant. By sustaining eye contact on a virtual AI avatar for a specific time, users can initiate an interaction silently and without using their hands. Preliminary user feedback suggests that this technique is relatively intuitive, natural, and less obtrusive, highlighting its potential for integrating AI assistants fluidly into everyday interactions.
