Eye-mouse for disabled

Abstract

This paper describes real-time daylight based eye gaze tracking system. Proposed solution consists of two video cameras, infrared markers and few electronic components. Usage of popular webcams makes the system inexpensive. In dual camera system one camera is used for pupil tracking while second one controls position of the head relative to the screen. Two detection algorithms have been developed and implemented – pupil detection and the screen position detection. Proposed solution is an attempt to create an interface for handicapped users which they could use instead of mouse or keyboard.
