The majority of the existing systems are based on sophisticated infra-red (IR) devices. In this study, the authors show that a webcam-based VOG system can provide similar accuracy to that of a head-mounted IR-based VOG system. They also prove that the authors’ iris localisation algorithm outperforms current state-of-the-art methods on the popular BioID dataset in terms of accuracy. The proposed system consists of a set of image processing algorithms: face detection, facial features localisation and iris localisation. They have performed examinations on patients suffering from PD using their system and a JAZZ-novo head-mounted device with IR sensor as reference. In the experiments, they have obtained a mean correlation of 0.841 between the results from their method and those from the JAZZ-novo. They have shown that the accuracy of their visual system is similar to the accuracy of IR head-mounted devices. In the future, they plan to extend their experiments to inexpensive high frame rate cameras which can potentially provide more diagnostic parameters. %@ 1751-9632 %T Webcam-based system for video-oculography %B IET Computer Vision %D March 2017 %V 11 %N 2 %P 173-180 %I Institution of Engineering and Technology %U https://digital-library.theiet.org/;jsessionid=38pch082oqp98.x-iet-live-01content/journals/10.1049/iet-cvi.2016.0226 %G EN
