A comparative study of different eye tracking system algorithms

Eye Gaze Tracking is emerging as a popular method to increase the efficiency as well as to increase the accessibility of computing systems. It has been already employed in various applications as well as many researches are going on to incorporate the concept in various other fields. There are various fields where the systems are employed ranging from ease of accessibility of computing systems [1] to performance of computer graphics processing by the method of foveated rendering [2] and as well as digital marketing analysis [3]. The application of eye gaze trackers is still limited due to its lack of availability as well as the cost of the eye gaze trackers which makes them still a scarce resource for majority of the population. This paper proposes an efficient system for Eye Gaze Tracking and draws a sharp contrast between the different open source software available for Eye Gaze Tracking on the market. The study draws the comparison between two of the most popular open source eye gaze tracking software available in the market. ITU Gaze Tracker [4] PyGame based Eye Tracker [5]. The components proposed for the system are easily available in the market.
