Validate Screen Purpose

The Validate screen displays target positions to the participant and measures

the difference between the computed fixation position and the fixation position

for the target obtained during calibration. This error reflects the gaze accuracy

of the calibration. The functionality available in the Validate screen is very

similar to that of the Calibrate screen.

Validation should only be performed after Calibration.

To perform a validation, have the subject look at the first fixation point and

press the “Accept Fixation” button, or the ENTER or Spacebar key, to start the

validation. If auto trigger is not enabled, repeat this action after each target

fixation.

If the accuracy at a fixated position is not acceptable, you may choose to

perform a Calibration again and then recheck fixation accuracy by revalidating.
