A low complexity method for real-time gaze tracking

The paper addresses a novel, fast and low complexity gaze tracking method, which remedies computation complexity and real-time processing problems of most existing gaze tracking methods. Face images are captured and pre-processed under infrared lamp-houses with dual thresholds. Pupil area is verified by the run-length in eight directions, and the gaze point is located by mapping the vectors of pupil and reflection point or using neural network. The experimental results show that the real-time processing of gaze tracking, with high resolution and high accuracy simultaneously, is achieved in this new system.
