= Pupil - Platform for eye tracking and egocentric vision research. =

''Description''

  Pupil is an open source eye tracking software platform for pervasive eye tracking and gaze-based interaction. Pupil comprises 
  1) a light-weight eye tracking headset,
  2) a graphical user interface to playback and visualize video and gaze data. 

  Pupil features high-resolution scene and eye cameras for monocular and binocular gaze estimation. The software and GUI are platform-independent and include state-of-the-art algorithms for real-time pupil detection and tracking, calibration, and 
  accurate gaze estimation. It started as a thesis project at MIT. Pupil has a mobile eye tracking hardware that is accessible, hackable, and affordable. 

  Pupil software is divided into two main parts, Pupil Capture and Pupil Player. Pupil Capture runs in real-time to capture and process images from the two (or more) camera video streams. Pupil Player is used to playback and visualize video and gaze 
  data recorded with Pupil Capture.
