Developing an Android solution for Tobii Eye Tracker 5L

[Luis Beltran]

Hello! First of all, sorry if this is a noob question. I’ve read the documentation and I think the answer is no, but I’d like to confirm since you have more experience about this.

Is it possible to connect the Tobii Eye Tracker 5L to an Android device (by using an USB adapter)?

If so, would it be possible to develop an Android application for eye tracking?

In case the answer is no to both questions, do you have any recommendations about developing an eye tracking solution for Android mobile devices?

From what I understood, this sensor can only be connected to a Windows PC/laptop.

Thank you for your time.

Hi @icebeam, and thanks for getting in touch. Unfortunately, the Tobii ET5 has no current means to interact with the Android Operating System.

If your intention is to have the eyes tracker for research or usability, then we would refer you to Tobii Pro which has a number of solutions such as the mobile device stand: https://www.tobiipro.com/product-listing/mobile-testing-accessory/
and Tobii Glasses: https://www.tobiipro.com/product-listing/tobii-pro-glasses-3/
