The PCEye Go runs on standard desktops or laptops using Windows, allowing you to work with any application that is controlled by a standard computer mouse. After installing the Tobii Gaze Interaction Software and a quick calibration, you are ready to surf the web, connect with friends online, play games, Skype, use environmental controls to turn on the lights or TV and even make spread sheets and documents. Simply look at the computer screen and control the mouse cursor with your eye movements, select by blinking, dwelling, using a switch or our unique zoom click functionality.
The sleek, contemporary design allows PCEye Go to discretely blend in with modern desktops and laptops, without drawing any attention away from you or what you want to accomplish or say. Advanced patented algorithms, filtering and high quality components, to name a few, make Tobii eye trackers extremely accurate, precise and robust. The PCEye Go is one of the most competent computer access solutions available.
Accompanying PCEye is the Tobii Gaze Interaction Software, which eliminates the need for a physical mouse, switch or keyboard. The Control software has two components, Mouse emulation, which replaces the traditional mouse cursor with the user’s gaze, and Tobii Gaze Selection.
- Gaze Selection makes it possible to control your desktop, or any other application, through an intuitive two-step process that reduces the risk of unwanted clicks. There is no floating mouse pointer to distract your eyes, which often leads to accidental clicks. With the two-step process, clicks are made intentionally and navigation is more intuitive, creating the most relaxed and natural computing environment.
- Incorporates a unique zoom functionality that gives a virtually pixel-precise control of where you point, click and drag. This pixel precision allows you to use software applications that have not been specifically designed for gaze control, enabling full computer access that was previously only available with a traditional mouse.
- For users not able to operate a standard keyboard and mouse, eye gaze is simply the fastest way to use your computer. And unique only to Tobii gaze interaction you efficiently access all of the functions of your computer with fewer mistakes and clicks, and at high speed.
- Use the built in key-board to write shorter texts or to enter a web address.
- Should you need dedicated, augmented and alternative communication software, you can run Tobii Communicator and Tobii Sono Key. These powerful software packages provide many options for more assisted communication, computer access and environmental control.
- Trackbox - the volume within which you can move your head, is among the largest on the market and gives you the freedom to sit or lie down comfortably with maintained eye tracking performance. Move freely within the trackbox while maintaining superior precision and accuracy. Should you move outside of the trackbox, the PCEye will quickly find your eyes again and continue to track them. Provides better tracking results for more people than any other system, regardless of most lighting conditions, eye colour, or if you are wearing contacts or glasses.
- Tobii PCEye Go provides the opportunity to interact with others, take control and to do what you want, when you want, without having to rely on others – things vital to living a healthy, happy and independent life.
- You can take advantage of all forms of communication, write emails to your friends and family, access social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter, and give friends and family updates about yourself through a blog or a personal website. You can even use it to make phone calls (requires additional part).
- Artistic expression through eye control can be a fun way to spend time, acquire new skills and promote creativity.
- Taking part in any type of recreation is a way to pass the time, have fun, learn, and stimulate your mind. Accessing a computer and the Internet through the Tobii PCEye is one way to do it independently.
Control devices in your environment - you can take control of things like lights, telephones, TVs, DVD players, toys and more (requires additional parts).
Using Gaze Interaction can be less straining on your neck and shoulders than using a head or traditional mouse or relying on ergonomic keyboards and switches.
Individuals with disabilities that inhibit the use of the hands or arms can remain in the workplace longer or even return to work using the Tobii PCEye Go, allowing for completely hands-free computing.
Portability - fits snuggly on your laptop or on a smaller desktop computer screen providing users with fast, accurate, hands free access to the full function and capabilities of a standard computer. Easily attaches and detaches using a smart, seamless magnetic mounting plate and USB connection. It is lightweight and small enough to be easily transported and used with different computers and in different environments, for example at home, at work or in school.
All processing for the eye tracker is done on the PCEye Go itself, not on your computer, avoiding additional workload for your computer and ensuring maximum, speedy performance. This also means that you do not need the latest, most expensive desktop or laptop in order to use gaze interaction as a computer access method.
However, if you do have high PC performance demands, like processor draining games or if you do not want to fall behind with aging technology, the modular design of the PCEye Go is ideal. Simply upgrade your computer and continue using the same eye tracker via a single USB connection.
