visual tracking
Gaze follows movement
Visual tracking is the ability to follow a moving object with the eyes, or systems designed to do so.
In human development, it's an early skill—infants learn to track faces and objects.
In technology, visual tracking refers to software or hardware that monitors movement: The security system uses visual tracking to follow subjects across multiple cameras.
Eye-tracking studies measure where people look on screens or pages.
