Background
This research was conducted by Sana Naghipour and Saba Naghipour in the Fall 2011 Semester at Washington University in Saint Louis. It was part of the Undergraduate Research Program and taken for credit as the course ESE 497 under the Electrical and Systems Engineering Department. The project was overseen by Dr. Arye Nehorai,Ed Richter and Phani Chavali.
Acknowledgments
We would like to show our greatest appreciation to Prof. Nehorai and Ed Richtor for providing us the research opportunity and feedbacks for the successful completion of the research.
We are highly indebted to our mentor, Phani Chaveli for his guidance and constant supervision as well as for providing necessary information regarding the project.
Project Overview
Abstract: The Eye tracker project is a research effort to empower people, who are suffering from Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), to write using their eyes by tracking the movement of the pupil. The project will be implemented in two main phases: First Phase: development of the software for pupil tracking Second Phase: building the hardware necessary to capture the images of the eye and transfer the images to a processing unit.
