Abstract :
This paper proposes a calculation for complex eye-blink duration by regression. The eye-blink durations are similar to EOG (electro-oculogram or electro-oculography), Simple electrode pads are used as sensors to acquire the right eyelid EOG signal and remove the artificial pseudo-signal. A realtime microcontroller calculates and displays the blink-durations and number of blinks. According to measurement results, the calculations of the numbers of blinks can reach high accuracy. The accuracy of blink duration determination is close to 95% via a 1 kHz sampling rate. In addition, the proposed detection system has advantages on low cost and low power consumption.
