Eye-tracking Arduino project: Volunteers wanted!

Lasercat with laser eyes

Hi, we’re getting people together to build an Arduino-based eye tracking system for our friend Tucker Stilley, to help him continue producing work as an intermedia artist, despite the inconvenience of a neuro-degenerative disease. He’s been successful so far, through efforts like the one demonstrated in this clip —

— but needs some new technology to progress. To help him do this, we want to get together a team to build an eyewriter, which is an open source eyetracking mouse rig, hardware, and software based around a hacked PS3 eye cam and OpenFrameworks.

If you have the skillz & time to help, please email machine@machineproject.com with the subject line “hey tucker” to join our contact list for this project.

More information on Tucker and this project can be found at his website, here.

Thanks!
