VISIOBOARD replaces the mouse and keyboard of a standard computer operating under the Windows environment. The position of the mouse cursor is directly controlled by eye gaze. The validation (mouse clicks) can be controlled by the duration of gaze, or by eye blinks or by an external actuator.

System name(s): VISIOBOARD

Who can use the system
Target users cases for whom an eye gaze interface can be more "efficient" than other solutions.
What is required from the user some eye movements and cognitive capabilities
Can the system be operated entirely by the user without assistance once the system is setup and running? yes after the system is powered-on

Technical Information


The technical information below is mainly targeted at developers.

What is the eye tracker physical interface type? Serial. USB. also video feedback to user's interface
Does the eye tracker require manufacturer's own dedicated software to operate, or can it be used with other suitable software? With any suitable software.
If the eye tracker can be used with other suitable software, will the manufacturer make the required control protocols available?
Does the manufacturer's own dedicated software have an API (programming interface) to allow control over the manufacturer's software and eye tracker by third party applications?
If the manufacturer's own dedicated software and eye tracker has an API, will the manufacturer make the required control protocols available? No.
Is a stream of gaze data (x, y, pupil size, blink etc) from the manufacturer's own dedicated software accessible to other third party software? No, cannot be accessed in real time by third party software.
If a stream of gaze data is accessible in real time, will the manufacturer make the format available? No.
Can gaze data (x, y, pupil size, blink etc) from the manufacturer's own dedicated software be captured and saved in a file for later use and analysis? No, cannot be saved.
If gaze data can be captured and saved, is the saved data file accessible to third party software?
