Excited to receive a new GazePoint GP3 eyetracker today for our testing lab!

This eyetracker is made in Canada, so if you're a researcher looking for one, consider supporting Canadian tech by checking out GazePoint or SR Research

· Gente comprando Tobii Eye Tracker (300€)
· Unos pocos valientes fabricando su propio hardware con impresoras 3D, soldando LEDs, resistencias, cables etc. ( +/-25€)

...y yo que me entero ahora : existe el #software OpenTrack ( también en Linux ) que funciona GENIAL y es tan sencillo como usar cualquier webcam cutre o simplemente con el móvil !!!

#AskFedi: Do any of you know of acceptable #EyeTracking solutions using just plain old cameras (or maybe the IR stuff that comes in iDevices)?
I want to play around with something really quickly, and just need something that kind of works, ideally without requiring additional components (though I have IR LEDs and some small camera modules lying around).
If you are curious, it is about this: https://plush.city/@hadley/113729759489988804

@gulovsen As I said before already, the #AppleVisionPro or any #WearableComputer of that kind can't become a #MassMarket success for all the reasons starting from the #price over being an #Apple product aka. hamfisted into uselessness and also lacking not just reasons and #applications to use it outside of the spechal nieche-cases that need #AugmentedReality and #EyeTracking.

• There, it's clumsy development tools and limitations are an acceptable exchange for being dozens of times cheaper, lighter and less cumbersome to setup at the user level than competing options. Just like the #ProDisplayXDR's price tag was only insulting to the people that never were the target audience to begin with (tho not having a real, stable and hard-fixed #VESA-Mount is an unforgiving sin given that they could've easily made that happen instead if a shitty & overpriced adaptor!)...

Personally, I'd consider building myself a #Optigon + #Somatic combo instead because that shit I can at least use with my existing tools and without misplaced trust into a #GAFAM that bows before the "P.R." China of all regimes...

OK, here goes. A work day with *just* the Apple Vision Pro, plus trackpad and keyboard…

Wow. In 24 hours, we have gone from zero to 4.4K followers, that‘s crazy. Thank you for a warm welcome and excellent tips. I gave up on replying to all of you after someone pointed out that I was spamming thousands of people – sorry! Also, please do not read too much into it if we do not respond or take a long time responding, we are a busy bunch and may simply sometimes miss your post or messages. Mastodon allows long posts so I am taking advantage of that, so here are a few things that you may – or may not – want to know.

—Who are we?—

Research in the Icelandic Vision Lab (https://visionlab.is) focuses on all things visual, with a major emphasis on higher-level or “cognitive” aspects of visual perception. It is co-run by five Principal Investigators: Árni Gunnar Ásgeirsson, Sabrina Hansmann-Roth, Árni Kristjánsson, Inga María Ólafsdóttir, and Heida Maria Sigurdardottir. Here on Mastodon, you will most likely be interacting with me – Heida – but other PIs and potentially other lab members (https://visionlab.is/people) may occasionally also post here as this is a joint account. If our posts are stupid and/or annoying, I will however almost surely be responsible!

—What do we do?—

Current and/or past research at IVL has looked at several visual processes, including #VisualAttention , #EyeMovements , #ObjectPerception , #FacePerception , #VisualMemory , #VisualStatistics , and the role of #Experience / #Learning effects in #VisualPerception . Some of our work concerns the basic properties of the workings of the typical adult #VisualSystem . We have also studied the perceptual capabilities of several unique populations, including children, synesthetes, professional athletes, people with anxiety disorders, blind people, and dyslexic readers. We focus on #BehavioralMethods but also make use of other techniques including #Electrophysiology , #EyeTracking , and #DeepNeuralNetworks

—Why are we here?—

We are mostly here to interact with other researchers in our field, including graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and principal investigators. This means that our activity on Mastodon may sometimes be quite niche. This can include boosting posts from others on research papers, conferences, or work opportunities in specialized fields, partaking in discussions on debates in our field, data analysis, or the scientific review process. Science communication and outreach are hugely important, but this account is not about that as such. So we take no offence if that means that you will unfollow us, that is perfectly alright :)

—But will there still sometimes be stupid memes as promised?—

Yes. They may or may not be funny, but they will be stupid.
