We investigated subjects' gaze movement when reading E-books and compared it with that when reading traditional paper books. By examining the eye motion associated with the reader encountering new lines and new pages during reading, we found that each new line was completed with one saccade in both E-books and paper books, but E-books and paper books differed in saccade patterns when the reader encountered a new page. In E-books, a regular eye movement such as steady gaze to the next page's start position was repeated. In contrast, in paper books, there is no regularity in eye movement during this transition. It was shown that reading behavior is variable and depends on the individual.

We developed a device to measure gaze and hand movement in a natural setting such as while reading a book on a train or bus. We examined what kind of cooperation exists among the head, eye and hand movements while subjects were reading a book held in the hand.
