1. An information processing system that recognizes, through use of a computer, input of direction information through eyeball movement of a user and performs processing corresponding to a predetermined GUI element, the information processing system comprising:
input recognition means for setting a previously acquired eyeball position of the user as a reference eyeball position serving as a reference, setting an eyeball position of the user acquired after the acquisition of the reference eyeball position as an input eyeball position, and recognizing the input of the direction information based on a moving direction of an eyeball from the reference eyeball position to the input eyeball position;
GUI processing means for performing, based on the recognized input of the direction information, processing corresponding to a second GUI element, which is adjacent to a first GUI element initially in a selected state, and is present in a direction the input of which has been received; and
reference update means for dynamically and repeatedly updating the reference eyeball position based on the acquired eyeball position of the user,
wherein the processing corresponding to the predetermined GUI element comprises transition from the selected state of the first GUI element to a selected state of the second GUI element, and
wherein the information processing system is configured to confirm, when a predetermined time has elapsed since turning of the second GUI element to the selected state, the selection of the second GUI element when no transition from the selected state of the second GUI element to a selected state of another GUI element occurs.
