gaze

NEW FEATURES:

• Gives distracted notifications (with sound if wanted) if eyes away or face not detected
• Options UI for types of notifications + toggle on/off extension
• No longer the “you switched tabs” bug for focus sites

FEATURES FOR THE FUTURE:

• Reward system in Today Summary (ur focused for X minutes) – not in notifications, will probably cause more distraction.
• Nicer logo/design touches

installation instructions–

terminal :

cd Desktop/filename
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
python3 app/server.py

• server runs at http://127.0.0.1:5000/

In a separate terminal but under the venv, run the eye tracker: python3 eye_tracker.py USERNAME

• This opens a webcam window; press ‘q’ to quit.
• remember to include username, i.e. ‘Alaina’ or it will default to default_user and eye_tracker data will not record to CSV

Other troubleshooting:

• On macOS give permissions to Chrome for notifications/sound + make sure Focus/DnD is off
