Eye detection and tracking

asked 2016-01-28 21:04:20 -0600

updated 2016-02-03 14:15:48 -0600

recently many questions were asked about the eye detection. for practise purpose, i tried to implement an initial code about this subject.

my main idea is based on detecting the eye pair and later track them.

  • firstly i used Multitracker class to track detected eyes but results were not satisfactory
  • secondly i tried to use matchTemplate function, it was better than Multitracker
  • lastly i tried to do eye detection on image ROI (the part of image that eye pair found before) results are better than my prior trials.

the code can be found on github

any suggestion about the code is welcome

EDIT 1

i found a good sample code on https://github.com/mc-jesus/face_dete...

i will try to improve this code.

to test it you can look at VideoFaceDetector-Demo.cpp

Hi,

It looks you've done a good job, but once I want to run It opened the web cam and I got error says that "Display Driver stopped responding and has recovered", so if I want to detect and track only for the video , can you please show what to do?

i added information about usage on github but the problem you mentioned is may not be related to my code. could you try sample code to be sure a basic video capture code works properly

Hi @sturkmen

when there is slight head movement the circle dots freezes at a specific location and tracks the eye

again only if the eyes return to the same dots location

i know this issue :). as i stated the code is very initial and not tested enough. let me try to improve

@sarmad i updated the code. the issue you mentioned is solved. did you try it with a sample video file?

I have tried it on video samples , it is fine when there is no head movement or slight movement ,

it fails to track eyes if head moves

@sturkmen , What about using flandmark to localize the eyes ? I think it is a good method

I am not sure but I think it will be too slow

@sturkmen , can you help me to run this code at Github I trying to compile it but I can't understand the type of errors that I get
