If you want to analyze a persons behavior, one of the most common methods to do so is eye tracking. Calculating fixations, visualize heat maps or understand what people don’t see by looking at a shadow map are just a few examples what eye tracking can do for you. And because we offer a range of eye tracking solutions it doesn’t matter if you want to do your study in a lab, in the real world or even in the virtual reality. D-Lab Eye-Tracking is the right solution for you.
D-Lab Eye-Tracking comes in three different versions: Head Mounted, Remote or Virtual Reality. Find out how eye tracking can support you in your studies by selecting one of the three different methods above.
