Article: [oats-sig] webcam mouse movement = mouseTrap

Greetings!!

I'm working right now in a new project called mouseTrap. It is based in 
at-spi and OpenCV libraries using the python programing language.

mouseTrap is an accessibility application to move the mouse pointer with 
a web cam and face detect features without using the mouse or keyboard, 
it  will use the eye track too (working on it ) so there wont be no need 
to move the head.

I'm trying to install the vxl library which gives me a compiling error 
(any help??) to test the opengazer features and so implement them in 
mouseTrap.

Well, I won't bother you with a long mail, here are the demo links:

The first one uses a complete face detection (with require a lot of CPU 
usage), the second one is the one that uses the latest improvements 
where i changed the complete face detection for a point tracker (less 
CPU Usage). Well, I'm working on it, and i hope you like it.
