Eye Tracking detects and measures eye movements in real-time to understand what people are looking at and translate this information into valuable insights that can be used in a variety of situations.
By measuring the reflection of the cornea and the dilation of the pupils, Eye Tracking helps allows us to understand complex processes like visual attention, engagement, drowsiness and arousal.
Leading consumer brands use eye tracking to better understand customer experience and product performance by measuring visual attention to key messages in product advertisements, placement and branding, package design, and more.
Are key pieces of information, messaging or artefacts receiving the required amount of visual attention within the ad?
How effectively is your User Experience (UX) and Customer Experience (CX) designed to support users.
Is your packaging designed in the most impactful way? How does it perform against a competitive set?
Is your store designed to enhance the experience of retail shoppers? How easy is it for them to navigate their way through different areas of the store?
Why do people make certain decisions? Eye Tracking is a powerful tool in understanding the decision making process and strong indicators for consumer behaviour
We spend the majority of our time in front of a screen – but what are we really looking at?
Screen-based eye tracking measures & analyses visual attention to almost any form of digital experience and multimedia.
Perform screen-based Eye Tracking on images, videos, websites, games, software interfaces, 3D environments, mobile phones and more to provide deeper insights into eye movements and visual attention.
Understanding how people behave in truly natural settings requires moving out of the lab and taking research tools into the wild.
Eye tracking glasses follow the natural gaze and attention of people in any environment. Eye tracking glasses are entirely non-invasive, allowing for unprecedented insight into how people see the world.
Gaze Mapping creates a representation of visual attention either individually or across a group.
They can be represented as either static images or dynamic videos, allowing you to understand what sequence people attend to specific pieces of information contained in a visual experience.
Heatmaps are visualisations that demonstrate the general distribution of gaze points. They are typically displayed as a colour gradient overlaid across the visual scene. The red, yellow, and green colours represent in descending order of the volume of gaze points that were directed towards different areas of the scene.
Using a heatmap is a straightforward method to quickly visualize which elements attract more attention than others. Heatmaps can be compared across single respondents as well as groups of participants, which can be helpful in understanding how different populations might view a stimulus in alternative ways.
An Area of Interest (AOI), is a tool to segment regions of a displayed stimulus, and extract metrics specifically for those regions. While not strictly a metric by itself, it defines the area by which crucial Eye Tracking metrics are calculated.
For example, if you show a picture of a person, it is possible to draw separate AOIs around the body and the face. You will then be able to display metrics for each region separately, like how long did it take for someone to look at a specific region, the length of time respondents spent in the region, how many fixations occurred within the region, how many returned to the region.

Eye tracking is a technology used to measure and interpret the point of a person’s gaze, where someone is looking, or the movements of the eye in response to different pieces of information or experiences.
An eye tracker is a device used to measure the specific position and movements of the eye in real-time.
Infrared cameras directed towards the pupils cause reflections in both the pupil & cornea. These reflections, provide information about the movement & direction of the eyes. hese reflections – the vector between the cornea and the pupil – are tracked by an infrared camera. This is the optical tracking of corneal reflections, known as pupil center corneal reflection (PCCR).
Screen-based eye tracking tracks the movements of the eye in response to a given stimulus on a screen. It records and analyses visual attention in response to different experiences across multimedia.
It’s possible to perform screen-based eye tracking on images, videos, websites, games, software interfaces, 3D environments and mobile phones to provide deeper insights into visual attention.
Eye tracking glasses enable us to follow and measure the natural gaze and attention of people across all environments.
Understanding how participants behave in natural settings is crucial to provide ecological validity to the data collected. Eye tracking glasses are entirely non-invasive, allowing for unprecedented insight into how people see the world.
Eye Tracking dats can be collected online using webcam Eye Tracking to deliver on flexibility and scalability to the data collection process, without the need for additional sensors.
Set up studies quickly and easily, and get insights from a scalable remote audience. All carried out via the user’s browser interface, and it’s GDPR compliant.
What grabs our attention? How do we react to certain visual imagery? Why is certain imagery more appealing than others? Eye-tracking allows you to understand the reasons behind these actions.
