Two competitive solutions to the problem of remote eye-tracking

Reliable detection and tracking of eyes is an important requirement for attentive user interfaces. In this paper, we present an innovative approach to the problem of the eye-tracking. Traditional eye-detectors, chosen for own properties, are combined by two different competitive schemes to improve own robustness and reliability. To illustrate our work, and validate the idea that employing multiple trackers is advantageous in forming a globally strong tracking methodology, we introduce a proof-of-concept single camera remote eye-tracker and discuss its implementation and the obtained experimental results.
