Which Software Is Compatible with Tobii Pro Spectrum, and How Is the Collected Data Analyzed?

Tobii Pro Spectrum eye tracker with Tobii Pro Lab software for synchronized eye tracking data collection, visualization, and behavioral research

Researchers can oversee every phase of an eye tracking study, from experiment design and participant calibration to data collection, visualization, statistical analysis, and export, thanks to Tobii Pro Spectrum's integration with Tobii's whole research software ecosystem. The platform is meant to support developers creating highly customized experimental applications as well as academics looking for an easy-to-use graphical approach.

Tobii Pro Lab

The primary analysis software for Tobii Pro Spectrum is Tobii Pro Lab.

Tobii Pro Lab provides a comprehensive environment for:

  • Designing experiments

  • Recording eye tracking data

  • Performing detailed behavioural analysis

Researchers can:

  • Replay participant sessions

  • Define Areas of Interest (AOIs)

  • Generate heat maps

  • Generate scan paths

  • Generate gaze plots

  • Analyze fixation statistics

  • Compare participants

  • Annotate events

  • Export quantitative metrics

Tobii Pro Lab supports Tobii Pro Spectrum throughout the entire research workflow, making it particularly suitable for:

  • Psychology

  • Neuroscience

  • Child development

  • Human factors
