Watch Eyes Motion Detection System is aproject used to enhance student's interest in multimedia system development, but at the same time the project can be used as motion detection system that will help any person in doing research in motion detection purposes. This system is able to be upgraded to be amonitoring system for security purposes. The project adds the number of motion detection collection programs that available in the market. Motion detection helps a lot in daily activities that involve security and good monitoring system. Studies have shown that motion detection helps in improvement of the security system and especially in doing aresearch about motion. But it is not the main focus in this project because it focuses more on how motion detection works. Watch Eyes is developed using skin tones algqrithm which is use in the system to detect the skin tones that present in the captured image. The main focus of the system is to ensure that the motion can be detected only using the skin tones. Combination of several related algorithms helps in developing the skin tones algorithm. Many researches have been carried out to identify the needs ofthe system to make it works as expected. The development of this system dope in stages, determined by the planning processes which follow the Water-Spiral model. Early analysis of the existing motion detection system falls under the earlier stage which include information gathering. Through the development of such system, it is hoped that it will help to increase student interest in computer vision that involve multimedia development and as well as to individual who interest in doing motion detection research.
