Research Tools - Video-Based Eye Tracking

We have developed a number of products and systems we use in our research. The two main data-gathering platforms are the Networked Fire Chief microworld software and the Head-Mounted Video system used for capturing events from the first-person perspective of the participant.

The supporting techniques for enhancing the data are the Two-Stage Cued Recall Debrief and the Video-Based Eye Tracking.

A purpose built usability / simulation laboratory has been designed for use when required.

Video-Based Eye Tracking

   
The DBA Systems PC Tracker 2 tracks the image of an infra-red illuminated pupil and allows a variety of data to be captured. For the group’s projects, the positions of the point of regard and pupil diameters are most commonly used. Use of the eye tracker allows detailed investigations into the role of visual attention in the performance of the Network Fire Chief simulator to be made.
