Dwelling, activated through gaze fixation for a prolonged time, is an essential task to be performed to select keys from on-screen keyboard present in the eye typing interface. Normally fixation on a key takes sufficient time which slows down eye typing rate. To get rid of it, researchers focused on minimizing or diminishing dwell time toward building a dwell-free interface. In this paper, we present an efficient dwell-free eye typing mechanism and compare it with a previous work with respect to text entry rate, learning rate and usability. The user experiment results reveal that newly proposed method performed slightly better than the other.
