People typically hold the iPhone closer to their face than they hold their laptop. Since accuracy in eye tracking depends on the angle between the calculated gaze vector and the true gaze vector, this means that error will be reduced. The a

Yes. Very yes. I can't upvote this comment enough. Advertising pricing with cost-per-glance (or eyeball, or something) is a big dream of ours. Front-facing cameras on mobile devices excite us no end.

Props for linking to OpenGazer and Dasher. AEGIS is absolutely a terrific project, and I've been inspired by the work that Emli-Mari Nel and others are doing on exactly this problem. Something to keep in mind when you're thinking about eye

I just finished my thesis about cellular automata. Specifically, I worked on the automatic verification of logical formulas about the behavior of a given automaton. Here's what that means. Suppose that you have some cellular automaton p, an

What about Larry Page and Sergey Brin? Or Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak? Motivation, more workers, and new ideas are all valuable contributions, but I feel like you might have missed the biggest benefit of all. Co-founders can be good at the

Terrific stuff, you can do a lot with OpenCV right out of the box. The Python bindings are pretty poorly documented, though (they change a lot). As much as I'd rather write Python than C++, if you're not already familiar with OpenCV it can

I definitely agree with the argument that historical perspective is important - but I think the author's pessimistic assessment of the American public school system, and its approach, is inaccurate. For example, he references a poll by Stra
