This repository is a fork of the webgazer project modified to handle the needs of rastoc. The only component being reused is the gaze estimation model. There is no guarantee that other components (like the examples files or secondary estimation models) are still working. Modifications to this repo should be done in the context of rastoc. Check that repo for more details.
The develop
branch is the one in which changes are being made.
Instead, the master
branch points to the last common ancestor with the
upstream repo.
WebGazer was originally developed at Brown University. Below is the last section of its original README.md in which acknowledgements to its original authors are made.
Note: The current iteration of WebGazer no longer corresponds with the WebGazer described in the following publications and which can be found here.

Webgazer is developed based on the research that is done by Brown University, with recent work at Pomona College. The work of the calibration example file was developed in the context of a course project with the aim to improve the feedback of WebGazer. It was proposed by Dr. Gerald Weber and his team Dr. Clemens Zeidler and Kai-Cheung Leung.
This research is supported by NSF grants IIS-1464061, IIS-1552663, and the Brown University Salomon Award.
