What Are the Technical Specifications of Tobii Glasses X?
Tobii Glasses X is engineered to provide a balance between ease of use, portability, and reliable eye tracking performance for commercial, industrial, and applied research environments. Tobii Glasses X uses a calibration-free approach, enabling users to start recording virtually instantly, in contrast to conventional research-focused wearable eye trackers that need participant calibration prior to each recording. This drastically cuts down on setup time and making the system ideal for businesses who perform several research, training sessions, workflow evaluations, or field observations all day long.
Eye Tracking Technology:
Tobii Glasses X uses binocular pupil-center corneal reflection (PCCR) eye tracking with the dark pupil method.
Eye Tracking Specifications:
Eye tracking method: Binocular pupil-center corneal reflection (PCCR)
Tracking method: Dark pupil
Sampling rate: 120 Hz
Eye tracking accuracy: Approximately 1.5°–2.5°
Built-in 3D eye tracking model
The built-in 3D eye tracking model automatically compensates for minor movement of the glasses during use, helping maintain reliable gaze estimation without requiring recalibration.
Calibration-Free Workflow:
Tobii Glasses X uses a calibration-free process, in contrast to conventional wearable eye trackers with a research focus.
This allows users to:
Begin recording almost immediately
Reduce setup time
The calibration-free workflow makes the system well suited for organizations conducting:
Multiple studies
Training sessions
Workflow assessments
Field observations
throughout the day.
Scene Camera:
Tobii Glasses X features a 2.5K scene camera that captures the participant's perspective.
Camera Specifications:
Resolution: 2560 × 1440 (2.5K)
Frame rate: 30 frames per second
Field of view:
132° diagonal
118° horizontal
67° vertical
Researchers can see nearly everything in the participant's natural viewing region thanks to the broad field of view.
Audio Recording
Integrated stereo microphones record synchronized audio, enabling:
Conversations
Verbal protocols
Environmental sounds
to be reviewed alongside gaze data.
Wearable Design:
The wearable unit weighs:
72 grams (including cable)
This makes it comfortable for prolonged use in:
Industrial environments
Retail stores
Production facilities
Healthcare settings
Field studies
Motion Tracking Sensors:
The glasses incorporate:
Accelerometer
Gyroscope
Magnetometer
Researchers can better understand how head movements relate to visual attention during dynamic tasks by using the synchronized motion data that these sensors provide.
Power & Connectivity
Power is supplied directly through:
USB-C connection
This eliminates the need for an external battery pack and simplifies deployment in enterprise environments.
Summary
When combined, these features offer Tobii Glasses X an easy-to-implement eye tracking solution for businesses looking for quick behavioral insights without the complexities of conventional wearable eye trackers for research.
