How to use

For end-users:

An executable file (.exe) is available to download in the dist folder. If you are not running windows, you will need to produce the executable file suitable for your OS. Check the developers guide below.

For developers:

  • Clone the project.
  • Make sure you have Node.js installed (v12.16)+
  • Install the dependencies npm install or yarn install.
  • Use the command npm start or yarn start to run the project.
  • Use the command npm dist or yarn dist to build for production.

How it works

The player is completely based on Plyr Media Player, which is a simple, lightweight player that exposes video control api's. It also provides easy support for both, locally stored videos, and online one's (Youtube, Vimeo, etc.)

The smart pause part is built using the two libraries Pico.js, and Lploc.js for face detection, and real-time pupils localization, where the web cam feed is constantly processed to find the user's face, and then decide whether there is an eye contact with the screen or not.
