TRACKEYE Sofware
TrackEye software is a computer vision software prepared by Zafer SAVAS as a part of his master thesis.
It is a Real-Time software for tracking human face, eyes & pupils with rotation and scale invariance property. It can also be used for blink detection, human-machine interaction (Remote device control using hand) and 2D-trajectory extraction from video sequences.

About the author & How Does It Work?
TrackEye was written by Zafer SAVAS using Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 and Intel Open Source Computer Vision Library (OpenCV). TrackEye is a part of my Master Thesis work in Electrical&Electronics Engineering Department of Middle East Technical University (www.metu.edu.tr).
Detailed features of the software can listed as follows;

- Scale and Rotation invariant Face Detection/Tracking

- Eye area detection/Tracking using Adaptive EigenEye method which was proposed by the author

- Eye Feature extraction such as eye outline detection and pupil detection

- Tracking of eye features

- Remote controlling using eye movements

- Blink Detection (has to be improved a little :))

- Color Object Tracking and Real-Time 2D Trajectory extraction

Requirements for the software are very simple as at the beginning of the project what it was aimed to be; a standard PC and a commercial cheap USB Camera.

A presentation explaining the TrackEye software : Presentation.zip

For the detailed working principle of TrackEye please download my thesis : Thesis_zsavas.pdf

Download TrackEye Software (Executable) : TrackEye_Executable.zip

Download an interesting output of the program in *.avi format : TrackEye_AVI1.avi

Please contact the author for the source code of TrackEye. It is a MS VC++ 6.0 project in a class based structure.

 

If you have any questions about the software or if you are interested in computer vision projects that we can develop together please contact me: zafersavas@yahoo.com, zsavas@aselsan.com.tr
