Low-cost latency measurement system for eye-mouse software

Published: 26 October 2014 Publication History

Abstract

One of the important characteristics of a window and gaze-contingent tool is the speed of reaction to the pointer or eye-movements and the update delay or the so-called latency of the contingent response. In our video we demonstrate a handy possibility of measuring the latency of the gaze-contingent or mouse-based software. We present a low-cost Latency Measurement System which can be useful for different studies that include eye-movement tracking tools. In conclusion we demonstrate this system for measuring the latency of gaze-contingent tool.
