Optical recognition methods for locating eyes

摘要

A method for processing an image of eyes of a subject is provided. The image is divided into two halves, each containing an eye of the subject. The halves are then processed to determine at least a position of a pupil within the first half and second half. After positions of the pupils are determined, horizontal and vertical histograms are developed from the pupil in each of the halves. Several ways of plotting the respective histograms are disclosed, these plots provided with various indicators for detecting abnormal conditions of the eyes.
