myGaze

myGaze – an eye-tracker with the 30Hz working frequency and response time of 50ms. Supports operation without an initial calibration and allows users to change various parameters during work.

myGaze Eye Tracking Module

myGaze – is an assistive technology, which was developed by a company with the same name. This eye-tracker is a compact device (24cm x 3cm x 3,5cm). You can use it with tablets and computer displays, which diagonal is lower than 22”. This device contains a camera and an infrared emitter. His device allows you to control user’s sight with accuracy of 0.5 degree.

This eye-tracker can work in various lighting conditions. The user may use as glasses, as well as contact lenses, which will not affect accuracy of user’s sight tracking. The working field of myGaze is 32cm x 21cm with a distance of 61cm. Manufacturer recommends to keep the device 50-75cm away from the user. Working frequency of the device is 30Hz, while response time is not higher than 50ms.

myGaze can work in Microsoft Windows XP, 7 (32-bit and 64-bit), 8 (32-bit and 64-bit) operation systems. It requires one USB 2.0 port. It’s recommended to use this eye-tracker on computers, based on Intel i3, i5, i7 (with processor’s frequency over 2.8GHz).

myGaze Software

A set of programs, which are provided with the device allows making a calibration with 5 points. One of the main features of this device is its possibility to work immediately without need to calibrate it. Even though such mode of operation will result in lower accuracy of user’s sight tracking.

myGaze perfectly works with many third party applications. Furthermore, developers provided it with a special control panel, which allows to make all necessary settings by using user’s sight.

The main function of myGaze eye-tracking system is to provide fully or partially paralyzed people with a possibility to communicate. Fast calibration feature, high accuracy and stability in any lighting conditions make this eye-tracking a perfect solution for rehabilitation and medical centers. Another important feature is that both glasses and contact lenses are not affecting accuracy of sight direction detection. myGaze has several great feature for those patients, who stay at home. The most important is a possibility to change all software settings through a control panel, which can be controlled with user's sight, thus avoiding an assistant help.
