SEEING MACHINES RELEASES FACELAB-LINK
Seeing Machines (AIM: SEE), a leading developer of advanced computer based
imaging software systems, announces today the release of faceLAB-LINK, an
exciting addition to its flagship faceLAB(TM) product.
faceLAB-LINK brings dynamically expandable field of view capability to
faceLAB(TM) for the first time by enabling multiple faceLAB systems to be used
simultaneously. Utilizing faceLAB-LINK, customers can combine their individual
faceLAB systems and operate as though running a single faceLAB system with a
virtually unlimited field of view. faceLAB-LINK systems can be configured to
accommodate a full 360 degrees of head rotation - a world first for non-invasive
eye tracking systems.
This capability is particularly useful in military training and simulation, and
automotive research applications, where operators commonly exhibit a large range
of movement. The self-calibration features of faceLAB-LINK allow users to easily
and quickly setup multiple systems, without the need for laborious data entry or
careful measurement of geometry.
In releasing the product, Nick Langdale-Smith, Sales & Marketing Director of
Seeing Machines said: 'faceLAB-LINK strengthens Seeing Machines lead in the
field of robust off-body eyetracking. The modular nature of faceLAB-LINK
provides almost unlimited configuration possibilities that will allow customers
the flexibility to operate in almost any research environment'.
Nick Cerneaz, CEO of Seeing Machines, commented: 'The launch of faceLAB-LINK is
part of our continual effort to innovate and improve our flagship product. We
are particularly pleased with the added features as they are of benefit to our
military and automotive customers, who make up a large part of our customer
base.'

About Seeing Machines
Seeing Machines is an award winning Technology Company which focuses on vision
based human machine interfaces. Formed in 2000 in Canberra, Australia, Seeing
Machines' purpose is to commercialise its computer-vision across a range of
industries and applications.
Seeing Machines deliver advanced computer vision solutions for researches and
developers in human factors, transportation safety, computer human interaction,
robotics, medical research and psychology. The flagship product faceLABTM
provides an automated and contact-free gaze and head tracking technology, it
solves the problem of observing human behaviour naturally, non-intrusively and
with a high degree of accuracy and usability.
faceLAB(TM) is a computer vision system that is able to measure the orientation
and position of a human head, as well as detect blinks and estimate
gaze-direction. It achieves all of this completely visually through a stereo
camera system connected to advanced image processing software, with no
attachments required on the subject. The product is designed to allow human
factors researchers and designers assess the interaction of an operator in an
environment and this finds application in designing operator environments, such
as cockpits for cars, trucks, trains, and aeroplanes for instance, and other
industrial design applications, as well as medical and psychological research
situations. The technology also has application in monitoring automobile drivers
and if it detects drowsiness or that the driver is distracted and their
attention has been diverted from the road, an alarm can be raised to alert the
driver to either pull over and rest in the case of drowsiness or to pay more
attention to the road.
faceLAB(TM) works in real-time, enabling the behaviour of a subject to be
tracked. This technology is paving the way in promoting safer driving conditions
and works to enhance the driving experience and to eliminate accidents caused
through driver drowsiness or distraction.
There are many different sectors that can benefit from this revolutionary
software, for which it has been developed, including: automotive; academic
research; medicine/healthcare; defence; autostereoscopy (next generation
displays); sport; and games.
