7.5 Recording with Tobii Glasses 2
Tobii Glasses 2 recordings are initiated from the Dashboard in Tobii Glasses Controller Software on your tablet/computer. Re-
cordings are associated with the study that was open when initiating the recording. Make sure the Recording Unit is correctly
connected over WLAN or Ethernet to your tablet/computer with Tobii Glasses Controller Software before attempting to start/
stop/pause a recording.
7.5.1 Starting a recording
You must go through four basic steps to start a recording:
1. Create/Select a participant.
2. Calibrate the participant.
3. Verify the calibration.
4. Start the recording.
7.5.1.1 Creating/Selecting a participant and initiating a recording:
1. Make sure the correct study is open in Tobii Glasses Controller Software.
2. Tap Dashboard on the Menu bar.
3. Make sure the Glasses Control Panel for the relevant Recording Unit displays “Ready”.
4. Tap Start New Recording on the Glasses Control Panel of the relevant Recording Unit.
5. Create a new participant or select an existing participant.
6. To create a new participant, type the participant’s name in the Participant field and participant details in the Participant
Info field. Then tap Create
7. To select an existing participant, tap Existing Participant and select the appropriate participant from the list.
7.5.1.2 Calibrating the participant:
To be able to collect accurate eye tracking data Tobii Glasses 2 must be calibrated individually for each participant. During the
calibration process the participant must be wearing the Head Unit while focusing on the center of the calibration target. The cal-
ibration target is printed on the supplied calibration cards and calibration stickers.
1. Make sure the calibration card or the calibration sticker is visible to the participant and appears in the scene camera live
view video in Tobii Glasses Controller Software. The calibration card should be held flat against a wall or otherwise
straight towards the participant. The distance between the participant and the Calibration Card should be between 0.75
and 1.25 meters (2.5 and 4.1 feet).
2. Ask the participant to look at and focus on the center of the Calibration Target. Keep the calibration card completely still
during the calibration process.
3. While the participant is looking at the Calibration Target, tap the Calibrate icon in the bottom right hand corner of the live
view window. Animated graphics illustrate the progress of the calibration process.
4. If calibration was unsuccessful try to re-calibrate the participant.
7.5.1.3 Verifying the calibration:
1. Once the calibration is complete, the results will be displayed in the calibration results box. Verify calibration results by
asking the participant to look at a few objects suggested by you, for example the calibration target, while verifying in the
live view video that eye tracking data is accurate.
2. If eye tracking accuracy is acceptable for your study, continue to the next step. Otherwise tap Recalibrate and repeat
the calibration process.
7.5.1.4 Starting the recording:
1. Tap Record after calibrations have been completed. Live Viewer will continue to show real time eye tracking.
