用眼睛控制鼠标

##eyeLike An OpenCV based webcam gaze tracker based on a simple image gradient-based eye center algorithm by Fabian Timm.

This is still a work in progress and does not track gaze yet.

##Status The eye center tracking works well but I don't have a reference point like eye corner yet so it can't actually track where the user is looking.

If anyone with more experience than me has ideas on how to effectively track a reference point or head pose so that the gaze point on the screen can be calculated contact me.

##Building

CMake is required to build eyeLike.

###OSX or Linux with Make

# do things in the build directory so that we don't clog up the main directory
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
make
./bin/eyeLike # the executable file

###On OSX with XCode

mkdir build
./cmakeBuild.sh

then open the XCode project in the build folder and run from there.

###On Windows There is some way to use CMake on Windows but I am not familiar with it.

eyemouse's Issues

控制光标移动

这是需要实现的第一个功能，也是最核心的功能
需要考虑

• 灵敏度
• 稳定性
• 左眼还是右眼
• 视网膜屏幕（retina）

鼠标事件

• 左键
• 右键
• 双击
• 滚动

或者，悬停后弹出一个万用菜单？

如何定义悬停？

跨平台

OpenCV 是跨平台的，包含以下部分：

• 算法
• 摄像头硬件操控
• 简单的窗口创建与显示

但是还需要：

• 复杂的 GUI 控件
• 平台相关的鼠标、键盘事件
