Evolution of human colour vision as 'visual purple' receptor proteins, are encoded by Rh1, OPN2 and RHO genes. They are characterized by extreme sensitivity to light and enable monochromatic human vision in low light or dim conditions. They are broken down into retinal and opsin when exposed to these conditions. Humans have 3 types of photopsin proteins found in the cone cells. Long Wavelength Sensitive Opsin (Red cone opsin) – Encoded by the OPN1LW gene with a λmax of 560 that is found in the yellow-green electromagnetic spectrum despite its name. Its sensitivity to the colour red is still known to be higher than the
Eye tracking designed optical sensor. The information is then analyzed to extract eye rotation from changes in reflections. Video-based eye trackers typically use the corneal reflection (the first Purkinje image) and the center of the pupil as features to track over time. A more sensitive type of eye-tracker, the dual-Purkinje eye tracker, uses reflections from the front of the cornea (first Purkinje image) and the back of the lens (fourth Purkinje image) as features to track. A still more sensitive method of tracking is to image features from inside the eye, such as the retinal blood vessels, and follow these features as
