Abstract: Current technologies detect the alertness of a user using frontal face. However, there are no techniques to track the position of face from a side angle. A method and system for face position tracking of a user and alerting the user is disclosed. The method includes capturing images using a monocular camera and identifying a user's face from the images and storing the user's face as reference face. The user's face is divided into two regions and one or more corner points are identified. A centroid is created in the two regions and the corner points are joined using virtual lines to create a dual flexible spider model. One or more new corner points are created on fulfillment of pre-defined conditions. Angle and magnitude of flow vectors is determined using one or more new corner points and alerts are given to the user based on the angle and magnitude.
