A Window into the Mind at a Price You Can Afford: Developing an Online and Offline Pupil-Size Analysis Plug-in

We will harness the power of Mirametrix eye-tracking technology to offer a viable means of probing internal mental processes that were previously intractable without more expensive or invasive techniques. Through the innovative application of popular statistical methods and state-of-the-art machine learning techniques, we will produce a software plug-in capable of online and offline pupil size analysis. The present study aims to make pupillometry more affordable and practicable for applications in research, education, clinical practice, and human-device interfaces such as video games. This partnership will help Mirametrix attract a wider demographic, gain competitive advantage, and increase sales revenue.
