Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Most of physically handicapped children do not have ability of verbal communication, so they need some support tools to express their thoughts or needs. Some communication support tools using movements of eyes for these physically handicapped people have been released already, but most of them are quite expensive. Based on the above points, we try to develop an application for physically handicapped children to tell their needs or wants with blinks. Process of detecting blinks is performed in the following steps; To detect an eye area(By using Opencv Haar-like eye-detection) To distinguish opening and closing of eyes(By using the complexity of binarized image) To add the method using saturation to detect blink(Aiming more accurate detection) To decide by a conscious blink(To define what is a “conscious blink”) To improve the accuracy of detection of a blink.
