EEG + Eye Tracker

This combination integrates Electroencephalography (EEG) with an eye-tracking system to simultaneously capture brain electrical activity and precise gaze behavior. The eye tracker provides real-time information on where a person is looking, their visual attention, pupil dilation, and saccades. By correlating these detailed eye movements with brain signals from the EEG, researchers can gain deeper insights into the neural processes underlying visual cognition, attention, decision-making, and emotional responses in more naturalistic or complex visual tasks. This pairing is crucial for understanding the dynamic interplay between what we see and how our brain processes it.

  • Visual Attention Insights: Links brain activity directly to gaze patterns and visual attention shifts.
  • Naturalistic Studies: Enables research in more dynamic, real-world visual environments.
  • Cognitive Load Assessment: Correlates brain states with pupil dilation and eye movement patterns for mental workload.
  • Enhanced Behavioral Context: Offers rich behavioral data (gaze, fixations) to interpret neural signals.
