Abstract

While visual saliency has recently been studied in 3D, the experimental setup for collecting 3D saliency data can be expensive and cumbersome. To address this challenge, we propose a novel experimental design that utilises an eye tracker on a screen to collect 3D saliency data, which could reduce the cost and complexity of data collection. We first collected gaze data on a computer screen and then mapped the 2D points to 3D saliency data through perspective transformation. Using this method, we propose Saliency3D, a 3D saliency dataset (49,276 fixations) comprising 10 participants looking at sixteen objects. We examined the viewing preferences for objects and our results indicate potential preferred viewing directions and a correlation between salient features and the variation in viewing directions.
