[Solved] Raw Eye Data in Unity

[William]

Hello!

I am working on a data collection project using a game we developed in Unity. I would like to be able to poll the sensor for the raw eye data that it is getting for use in a machine learning algorithm. Is that possible currently? I think I found what I was looking for in the EyeXFramework source but I wanted to make sure it wasn’t available within the Unity package before I start down that path.

Thanks!

Hi!

Tobii SDK license agreement explicitly prohibits data collection.
https://developer.tobii.com/license-agreement/

So if you are going to collect or transfer gaze data you might need to get a separate license from Tobii Pro.

Talking about the gaze data. The data you get through Unity SDK is almost raw:

EyeXFramework is also getting deprecated very soon and will be replaced by Tobii Core SDK. Beta is available here:

Okay, that’s weird, but thanks for letting me know. I guess I don’t need to actually collect the data yet but once I get everything figured out I will look into that. I will check out the CoreSDK and see if it does what I need.

Thanks!
