What Types of Data Can Tobii Pro Spark Record and Analyze?

Tobii Pro Spark Data Output

All of the crucial eye movement data needed for fixation-based behavioral research is captured by Tobii Pro Spark. Gaze point, gaze origin, pupil diameter, and high-precision timestamps recorded binocularly at up to 60 Hz are among its main outputs. With Tobii's analysis software, these measurements allow researchers to compute fixations, saccades, dwell duration, revisit counts, scan pathways, and gaze transitions.

Eye Tracking Data

Tobii Pro Spark records:

  • Gaze point

  • Gaze origin

  • Pupil diameter

  • High-precision timestamps

These measurements are captured:

  • Binocularly

  • At up to 60 Hz

Behavioural Metrics

Using the recorded eye movement data, researchers can calculate:

  • Fixations

  • Saccades

  • Dwell time

  • Revisit counts

  • Scan paths

  • Gaze transitions

using Tobii's analysis software.

Analysis with Tobii Pro Lab

When used with Tobii Pro Lab, researchers can generate:

  • Heat maps

  • Areas of Interest (AOIs)

  • Time of Interest (TOIs)

  • Gaze plots

  • Fixation statistics

  • Participant comparisons

  • Behavioural metrics

These analyses reveal patterns of visual attention and are widely used in:

  • Psychology

  • Education

  • Consumer research

  • Website usability

  • Interface design

  • Marketing studies

Data Export & Advanced Analysis

Tobii Pro Spark fully supports export of raw gaze data for additional analysis using:

  • Python

  • MATLAB

  • R

  • SPSS

  • Custom statistical workflows through the Tobii Pro SDK

Advanced Features Not Included

Unlike Tobii Pro Fusion and Tobii Pro Spectrum, Tobii Pro Spark does not provide:

  • Eye openness data streams

  • Eye image streams

  • TTL synchronization

This reflects its focus on affordable fixation-based research rather than advanced neuroscience applications.

Summary

In order to calculate fixations, saccades, dwell duration, revisit counts, scan pathways, and gaze transitions, Tobii Pro Spark records gaze point, gaze origin, pupil diameter, and high-precision timestamps at up to 60 Hz. Heat maps, AOIs, TOIs, gaze plots, fixation statistics, participant comparisons, and behavioral metrics are among the studies that can be performed using Tobii Pro Lab. Additionally, raw data export for analysis using Python, MATLAB, R, SPSS, and the Tobii Pro SDK is supported.
