Area of Science:

  • Cognitive Science
  • Neuroscience
  • Computer Science

Background:

  • Eyetracking research requires specialized software for stimulus presentation, response collection, and eye movement detection.
  • Existing software solutions can be complex and inflexible, hindering rapid experiment development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce PyGaze, an open-source Python toolbox designed to streamline the creation of eyetracking experiments.
  • To provide a flexible and user-friendly software bridge for diverse eyetracking hardware and research needs.

Main Methods:

  • Developed PyGaze as a Python package utilizing Python syntax for experiment design.
  • Integrated support for various stimulus types (visual, auditory) and response collection methods (keyboard, mouse, joystick).
  • Implemented online eye movement detection using a custom algorithm and compatibility with major eyetracker brands (EyeLink, SMI, Tobii).

Main Results:

  • PyGaze offers a simplified layer over existing eyetracking libraries, enhancing ease of use and script readability.
  • The toolbox supports a wide range of eyetracking hardware, facilitating broader research applications.
  • Enables efficient creation of eyetracking experiments without compromising functionality.

Conclusions:

  • PyGaze serves as a valuable software bridge, simplifying complex eyetracking experiment setup.
  • The open-source nature and flexibility of PyGaze promote accessibility and innovation in eyetracking research.
