Trying to detect if a cartoon character is looking at the watcher

Hi!

I'm trying to code a video of 'Dora the Explorer' for how much it ineracts with a child, like in the scenes where they look at the camera and ask the child to find something on the screen. My question is, is there a way to ask matlab to detect when dora is looking at the screen, how long she is looking for and how many times in the video?

Thanks!

There is no built-in higher level functionality like that. Probably the best bet is to train a deep learning model, however that will mean you have to classify hundreds of frames (into looking or not looking) in order to train the model before you can apply it to an "unknown" video. Search the web site on transfer learning.
