What's the difference between host class and eyexhost class?

[Guoxing Sun]

My tobii equipment is tobii eyetracker 4C and I have developed it under .NET. I have found that there are two similar class during my development process. They are Tobii.Interaction.Host class and EyeXFramework.EyeXHost class. They have the similar functions:
host.Streams.CreateGazePointDataStream() VS eyeXHost.CreateGazePointDataStream(GazePointDataMode.LightlyFiltered),
host.States.CreateGazeTrackingObserver().Changed VS eyeXHost.GazeTrackingChanged,
host.States.GetEyeTrackingDeviceStatusAsync().Result.Value VS eyeXHost.EyeTrackingDeviceStatus.
So my question is that what’s the difference between class Tobii.Interaction.Host and class EyeXFramework.EyeXHost and which is better under .NET development?

Hi @tcguoxing and thanks for your query. Although there is no significant difference in terms of feature, as the EyeXFramework.EyeXHost is a wrapper for Tobii.Interaction.Host.we would recommend you use Tobii.Interaction.Host for your project.

Please let us know if we can provide you any further information. Best Wishes.
