About the Eye movement recording facilities
Eye-trackers can work out where on a computer screen a person is looking.
We have several eye-tracking devices to help discover the brain's cognitive processing mechanisms.
Eye movement recording facilities
Shackleton, Building 44, Highfield Campus, 46 Chamberlain Road, Southampton SO17 1PS
Technical specification
Our EyeLink 1000 eye-trackers can:
- sample the position of a person's eyes every millisecond
- detect the letter an eye is fixated upon
- give different information to each eye
- track static or moving observers
Research
The eye tracking research we carry out explores reading, visual searching and threat awareness.
Our research includes:
- recording and analysing eye movements to study visual and cognitive processes that take place while somebody is reading
- studying how people can be trained to find rare objects efficiently - such as dangerous items in airport security screenings
- exploring the extent to which visual stimuli drive attention and help us access awareness
