Review of GazePointer

GazePointer is a Human computer interaction application for controlling the mouse pointer with a person's point of gaze, that is calculated with computer vision algorithms. After downloading the GazePointer app from ​http://gazerecorder.christiaanboersma.com/gazepointer-beta/, I installed it in order to test it. It has very simple interface and it is very easy to use.

From this picture we can see there is an area for your head, where you should position before starting the calibration process. After doing that I started calibrating my gaze by clicking on the Calibrate button, and the calibration process is done by looking at the center of the green dots at first, as you can see from the second picture, and afterwards, you also move your head at the direction of the arrow and the green dots, as you can see from picture 3.
