<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: medium; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
Tracking objects in first-person view is notoriously challenging, and EXTRA-EYE aims to pioneer a solution. Our approach involves integrating state-of-the-art deep learning architectures for <span lang="EN-US">third-person-view</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">(TPV) </span>tracking
with <span lang="EN-US">first-person-view</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">(FPV) </span>specific cues, such as the position of the user's hands. The project will establish correspondences between scenes captured in the FPV and TPV streams,
creating a holistic, robust, and efficient tracking approach capable of real-time tracking across multiple dynamic and static cameras.<o:p></o:p></p>

<b>EXTRA-EYE Project Overview: <o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm; font-size: medium; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
The EXTRA-EYE project focuses on comprehensively tracking user behavior in dynamic environments, with a particular emphasis on sectors like retail. The project aims to develop a state-of-the-art computer vision system, integrating both "exocentric" and "egocentric"
viewpoints for a holistic understanding of user interactions. <o:p></o:p></p>
