Main Methods:

  • The calibrator utilizes two HDPE spheres with embedded laser modules to simulate eye movements.
  • A target with measurement intervals is used to validate laser beam positions.
  • Anatomically sized pupils are integrated as targets for the systems under test.
  • The device allows for manual control and can be motorized for automated operation.

Main Results:

  • The device successfully simulates eye movements for calibration and validation purposes.
  • It offers precise control over eye position simulation within a defined range.
  • The calibrator is adaptable for various eye-tracking systems, including IR Reflective Differencing Saccadic Eye Movement Measurement Systems.

Conclusions:

  • The developed calibrator provides a portable and effective solution for validating eye movement detectors.
  • Its design allows for comprehensive testing of system accuracy and functionality.
  • This tool can enhance the reliability and precision of eye-tracking research and applications.
