Abstract

This paper proposes an automatic face orientation interpretation system for human-machine interface to benefit the severely handicapped people. Our system investigates a new method for movement identification and uses a Hybrid scheme consisting of extracting the Eigen values of covariance matrices using Hough Transform and Bresenham¡¯s Raster scan Algorithms. The proposed template matching algorithm has been found effective in tracking the movement of the eyes and, using a classifier it is possible to verify the open or closed eyes and convert the eye winks into a sequence of codes (0 or 1) and subsequently translate the code sequence to a certain valid command. The present work differs from the previous eye-gaze tracking methods, in that, the system identifies the open or closed eye and then interprets the eye winking as certain commands for human-machine interface. Our system demonstrates better performance as well as higher accuracy as shown in the results.
