To understand how and eye tracker works it is first important to know how our eyes and the humans vision system works. An eye-tracking system like the Tobii T60 / T120 / X120 measures how the eyes typically move over a digital image that is shown to a respondent from the target group. The human eyes are constantly moving until they stop and focus on a point. There are over ten different types of eye movements, of which the most important ones are saccades,...

To understand how and eye tracker works it is first important to know how our eyes and the humans vision system works. There are over ten different types of eye movements, of which the most important ones are saccades, fixations, and smooth pursuit. When the eyes stop to focus it is called a fixation and the movements between these fixations are called saccades. The length of the stops, when the eye fixates, varies from about 100 to 600 milliseconds and...
