Real Time Eye Gaze Tracking By Image Processing For Helping Disabled People in human computer interactions

Abstract

Main goal in this thesis was using trajectory of eye gaze instead of foot or hand for disabled people to execute some commands. A system is implemented to track eye gaze in real-time by using a simple and low cost webcam mounted on ordinary laptops. This process widely exploits the weighted normalized correlation function in an adaptive template matching approach. This system tracks the face and also extracts some eye features such as sclera region, iris position and eye corners in eyes, in real time. These features are used in eye gaze estimation. Our system doesn't require any additional instrumentation and condition like infrared light, high quality cameras or training. The implemented gaze tracking system is able to control the motions of mouse cursor and click on an onscreen keyboard in real time and is a practical human computer interface.
