چکیده

This paper presents an approach for real-time remote detection of eyeblink parameters. First, a combination of boosted classifiers and LucasKanade tracking is used to follow the movement of face and eyes. Then, detailed eye movement is described by normal flow. Finally, a discrete finite state machine is used to detect eye-blinks. The proposed approach is evaluated on a series of short video sequences. It shows promising eyeblink detection capabilities that could be used for software-based prevention of workplace-related disorders.

A Fast, Robust, Automatic Blink Detector

Introduction “Blink” is defined as closing and opening of the eyes in a small duration of time. In this study, we aimed to introduce a fast, robust, vision-based approach for blink detection. Materials and Methods This approach consists of two steps. In the first step, the subject’s face is localized every second and with the first blink, the system detects the eye’s location and creates an ope...

Mobile-Based Eye-Blink Detection Performance Analysis on Android Platform

In this article, we develop a real-time mobile phone-based gaze tracking and eye-blink detection system on Android platform. Our eye-blink detection scheme is developed based on the time difference between two open eye states. We develop our system by finding the greatest circle—pupil of an eye. So we combine the both Haar classifier and Normalized Summation of Square of Difference template-mat...

Real Time Eye Template Detection and Tracking

There has been a growing interest in the field of facial expression recognition especially in the last two decades. An example of such a system is the improvement of driver carefulness and accident reduction. The driver’s face is tracked while he is driving and he is warned if there seems to be an alerting fact that can result in an accident such as sleepy eyes, or looking out of the road. Furt...

Eye Blink Based Fatigue Detection for Prevention of Computer Vision Syndrome

Living in information society we spend a lot of time in front of visual display units such as computer monitors or TV screens. This has positive as well as negative effects on our lives. Negative effects are mostly health related and one major concern is the increasing number of people affected by the Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) [1]. Most CVS-related problems can be avoided by suitable preve...
