Could you build this?
Partial The wallpaper playback and multi-monitor handling are buildable, but convincing 2.5D animation with gaze tracking and eyelid dynamics needs computer vision and rigging expertise.
What it would actually take: The app needs a real-time renderer for layered 2.5D images or video, a face or gaze tracker (such as MediaPipe or a similar model running on-device), and a physically plausible eyelid and motion model. Performance tuning for low CPU and GPU use across monitors is also hard. The core pieces are reasonable for an experienced graphics or CV developer, but a solo AI-assisted builder will struggle to make the tracking feel polished.
