Could this be used to further analyse websites? Instead of just the usual eye heat map, and optimising for that would it be better to optimise for each page based on the content on that page?
I think a really interesting thing to do would be to place some cameras overhead, facing down, and then use either image recognition techniques (eg OpenCV), infra red cameras and heat tracking, or even something like a kinect to track the points at about head height. You could build data up over days or weeks rather than minutes, and get a much better idea of how people move through the space.
