Abstract

Eye trackers output a stream of points at which the eye was looking. To give these points meaning, researchers analyzing eye tracking data need to map the points onto the meaningful objects at which the eye was looking. Performing this mapping has proven to be a tedious, time-consuming task. We present a software system that automates this task for Web usabilty studies that incorporate eye tracking.
