AN EYE TRACKING EXPERIMENT
AN EYE TRACKING EXPERIMENT


This project is a web cam eye tracking experimentation with Max MSP. My experiment on eye tracking is inspired by historic findings of  Alfred Yarbus on  eye movements in the 1950s and 1960s. Yarbu’s device was a video-based system. He recorded the close-up videos of the eyes and then he edited the video frame by frame to calculate the gaze tracking data. I experimented both video footage and web cam to track the eyeball. After targeting eyeballs using cv.jit library extensions, adaptive threshold method was used to turn eye image into white dot on black background. The most difficult part was to capture eye balls from web cam because of the low resolution. Then, I used jit.lcd to draw line based on the data coming from tracking.
