if I use eyelike project with eyetribe what are the right values in findeyes function? it work if i use a gain value 40-45 in eyetribe but the result is not optimal. my scope is to find and track pupils with eyetribe. i have problem to use your solution with halide and i work with your simplest solution

eyeLike is not suitable for IR pupil tracking. It's slow and inaccurate, your results will be terrible. There is a reason that I started writing a new eye tracker (SmartGaze) that uses Halide (so it is fast enough) and a better more accurate tracking algorithm.

It would be easier for you to read through the entire source code of SmartGaze, understand how everything works, and then use that knowledge to either get it to build or to replace Halide with raw OpenCV code (it isn't used for very much right now).

eyeLike is designed for low accuracy webcam eye tracking and won't ever be able to do much more. My attempt at solving this is the SmartGaze project.
