Using these predicted landmarks of the face, we can build appropriate features that will further allow us to detect certain actions, like using the eye-aspect-ratio (more on this below) to detect a blink or a wink, using the mouth-aspect-ratio to detect a yawn etc or maybe even a pout. In this project, these actions are programmed as triggers to control the mouse cursor. [PyAutoGUI](http://pyautogui.readthedocs.io) library was used to control the mouse cursor.

### Eye-Aspect-Ratio (EAR)
You will see that Eye-Aspect-Ratio [[1](#references)] is the simplest and the most elegant feature that takes good advantage of the facial landmarks. EAR helps us in detecting blinks [[3](#references)] and winks etc.
