Evaluation of Browsing Interface by Face Tracking Technology

Abstract

These days, the face-tracking-technique progresses on smartphones and computers with web camera. Then many useful applications software are developed and provided as open source. On the other hand, HTML5, JavaScript and server side techniques are used on more interactive browsing environment. In this article, we evaluated our web browsing interface by face tracking and then discussed the result of experiment. The result of experiment showed that our proposed method is available for simple and easy web browsing even when both hands are busy, but three problems are followings; some user's tiredness during operation, calibration on control, and accuracy of face-movement recognition. These are future issues.
