Improving Calibration Point(s)
After calibration, you may want to improve one or more points.
There is a color scheme used that will help you to understand the quality of your calibration.
All three color statuses are the result of a successful calibration.
ͻ
If the background color of the Calibration Result is light red, you have achieved a successful, but relatively low quality
calibration. You can improve one or more points individually, or recalibrate completely, to achieve better
Gaze Interaction results.
Improving even one (or more) of the calibrations points can significantly improve the calibration.
ͻ
ͻ
If the background color of the Calibration Result is light yellow, you have achieved successful and good quality calibration. You might be able achieve better Gaze Interaction results by improving one or more points individually.
If the background color of the Calibration Result is green, you have achieved a successful and high quality calibration.
Be aware that no matter what quality of calibration you have achieved you will be able to select OK or Apply and begin using Gaze Interaction. It is the accuracy and functionality of the Gaze Interaction that is affected by the quality of
the calibration results. Try for the best calibration possible.
Remember! In the end it is the personal experience that counts!
The closer the lines within the calibration point are to a dot in the center of the circle of the calibration point, the better the calibration is of that point,
.You can choose the points to be improved and calibrate only those points again.
To improve one or more calibration points, follow these steps :
1.
Open Gaze Interaction Settings > Calibration.
2.
Select the point(s) you want to improve under Calibration Result.
3.
Select the Improve Point(s) button and a calibration for the selected point(s) will start.

Removing Calibration Point(s)
If there is a calibration point that is consistently bad after calibration (the green lines are scattered all around and outside the
circle of the calibration point) you can remove that point completely from the calibration, this may improve the calibration of the
other points. Be aware that if you remove a point, that area of the screen will be uncalibrated and Gaze Interaction will not function properly there.
To remove one or more calibration points, follow these steps:
1.
Open Gaze Interaction Settings > Calibration.

according to the transmitter
manufacturer and "d" is the
recommended separation
distance in meters (m).
Field strengths from fixed RF
transmitters, as determined
by an electromagnetic site

frequency range.ii
Interference may occur in the
vicinity of equipment marked
with the following symbol.
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and
reflected from structures, objects and people.
i.
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and
FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF
transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Tobii Dynavox I-Series+
device is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Tobii Dynavox I-Series+ device should be observed to verify normal operation. If
abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the Tobii Dynavox I-Series+ device.
ii.
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF (Radio Frequency) communications equipment and
the Tobii Dynavox I-Series+ device.
The Tobii Dynavox I-Series+ device is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF
disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Tobii Dynavox I-Series+ device can help prevent
electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communication equipment

i.
Freedom of head movement describes the volume in front of the tracker in which the user must have at least one of the eyes. The numbers are
specified parallell/orthogonal to screen surface, assuming eye tracker is at 20 degree angle to screen.
ii.
Gaze accuracy describes the angular average distance from the actual gaze point to the one measured by the eye tracker.
Accuracy under ideal conditions is measured with users placed in the center of the eye tracker track box with the head resting on a chin rest, and the
room and screen illumination constant at 300 lux.
Accuracy across head box is measured with users after calibration systematically positioned at varying positions ranging from center of the head box
up to +/- 15 cm horizontal, +/- 10 cm vertical and +/- 10 cm distance.
Accuracy across varying background illumination is measured with users͛ head resting on a chin rest, and after calibration modifying background
illumination from 1 to 1000 lux.
iii.
Gaze Precision describes the point-to-point variation between individual gaze samples (here specified with binocular data, ie both eyes, and
measured on artificial eyes). Gaze Precision with Stampe filter is with Stampe stage 2 noise-reduction algorithm applied to raw data (Stampe ,
Behavior Research Methods, Instruments & Computers 1993, 25 (2), 137-142).
Precision without filter is based on raw data, without any de-noising filter applied, either inside or outside the eye tracker.
Precision under ideal conditions is measured with users placed in the center of the eye tracker track box with the head resting on a chin rest, and the
room and screen illumination constant at 300 lux.
Precision across head box is measured with users after calibration systematically positioned at varying positions ranging from center of the head box
up to +/- 15 cm horizontal, +/- 10 cm vertical and +/- 10 cm distance.
