How Tobii eye tracking is used in gaming: Tobii eye tracking is used by gamers who want to take their game to the next level with deeper analytics, improved game control, and greater streaming options. The three common usage scenarios include:
- Game-control: Use head and eye movements to control the in-game camera, to act quicker, and to have more immersive game experience. Players effortlessly affect game elements using the eyes, for example, to aim, pan the camera around the screen, or select objects.
- Training: Become a better player with the knowledge of how your visual attention impacts your play. Players use eye tracking analytics with metrics such as tunnel vision, awareness, and focus to make quicker and better-informed decisions.
- Streaming: Create and stream content that provides insights about your decision-making, fixation, and awareness. By visualizing the eye movements, streamers allow viewers to get a greater understanding of the gameplay.
.
Tobii Eye Tracker 5 does not work with Microsoft Windows eye control as of today. But we’re keen to expand functionalities as soon as possible.
Intelligent sensor technology
Under the hood lies a custom-built infrared optical sensor, built specifically for responsiveness, accuracy, and reliability. When tracking is activated, the Tobii Eye Tracker 5 delivers incredible in-game performance and game training capabilities – helping you to maximize your competitiveness and enjoyment.
One mount fits all
Our new flex mount is designed to be universal and adaptable to flat and curved screens, as it can be mounted underneath the monitor, with additional flat mounts for built-in screens.
Adaptable to a variety of conditions
Tobii Eye Tracker 5’s illuminators emit near-infrared light, allowing it to perform exceptionally well in varying light conditions.

Been using this for about 3 months in Flight Simulator. Mounted it below a fairly large screen TV as the main display. The setup and calibration went pretty easily, no issues. Expect to spend time playing around with the settings, such as the relative balance between head tracking and eye tracking. Be sure to set up two key bindings to control it: I use F12 for ‘recenter the view’ and shift-F12 for ‘turn on / off’. I normally fly with it turned on while in the air; it’s wonderful to be able to look around and not take your hands off the controls. SO much better than trying to use the mouse, etc. I turn it off when aircraft is not moving (or sometimes when I pause in midair) – it’s pretty hard to keep your head still while you are twisting your head around to find a control in the cockpit and then hit it with the mouse. Much easier to turn off tracking, using convention mouse movement and clicking such as to flip switches and move stuff like tailwheel lock – it’s a lot easier because they don’t ‘jump around’ like they do when tracking is on. Watch the better YouTube videos, you’ll get a lot of useful tips on making it work in a way that pleases you. Don’t expect to plug in and fly – your experience will be less than great, maybe even miserable – so do the setup and prep properly. It’s not cheap, but to me it has been very worthwhile – makes flying so much more immersive. Recommended!
Ich hatte selbst nicht erwartet, dass der Tobii SO gut funktioniert, selbst mit Brille. Die Einrichtung und Software ist erstklassig einfach und schnell und die Funktionsweise einwandfrei. Auerdem ist selbst durch die Brille das Eye-Tracking erstaunlich przise.
Der Preis ist mit etwa 260 inkl. Rabattaktion nicht gerade wenig, aber dafr erhlt man ein erstklassiges Gesamtpaket das …. einfach direkt funktioniert wie es verspricht. (Erst recht im Vergleich mit der blichen Software fr jeglicher Art an “Gaming Hardware”)
Egal ob Flugsimulation oder Racing, der Eyetracker ist ein aboluter Gamechanger und definitiv eine perfekte (!) Alternative zur VR-Brille ( man sitzt nicht komplettabgeschottet von der Umwelt)
Ich nutze den tracker fr Star Citizen und bin begeistert. Super einfache Installation und das Produkt arbeitet sehr genau!
Durch den tracker wird das Spielen viel realistischer. Definitiv eine Kaufempfehlung!
I use this for American truck simulator. Its a little weird getting used to it, but when you do its pretty awesome. The mounting system could be improved. I ended up gluing 2 magnets to the back of it and then stuck it on the bottom of my monitor with no issues.
I was completely satisfied with this product when I was using it on my 27 inch monitor. I recently switched to at 32 inch monitor and got the mounting kit for the Tobii Eye Tracker 5 and attached it to my new monitor. It seems to still work with ~90% with the eye tracking. I noticed when I was setting the eye tracker that the dots were not on the very edge of the monitor. In Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, it works well. The head tracking works perfectly fine and the eye tracking works for most of the monitor, except for an inch or so around the edges. It really adds to making the game more immersive.
I wonder if there is a way for Tobii to have the software have a choice for monitor sizes. That would be ideal so customers can have more choice and have 100% functionality.
Rien mettre sur la tte et d’une prcision indniable, avoir pour les heux de simulation!
Vraiment rvolutionnaire ce priphrique, je m’en sert pour le moment que sur Star Citizen, c’est un game changer, le pilotage et combat dans l’espace et atmo sont vraiment immersif, je recommande.
prodotto fantastico, funziona benissimo ed facile da installare su MSFS
Es un dispositivo de gran utilidad en juegos tales como American Truck simulator y Eurotruck simulator 2. Arma por citar otro ejemplo.
Es sencillo de instalar y hasta divertido ajustarlo en el juego. A diferencia de TrackIr te liberas del dispositivo de cabeza.
Si realmente quieres disfrutar de lo inmersivo del juego lo debes tener.
Se nota su calidad y el cuidado en su fabricacin.
You’ll probably need to use the Flex Mount kit for most modern monitors, which is my biggest complaint. It’s designed to be mounted dead-center on the bottom of your monitor . . . right where you often have the monitor’s control buttons. On the bright side, it can handle a slight offset from center.
The Tobii uses active IR to track your eyes, which can be strenuous. Even though the IR is invisible, it took a few sessions for my eyes to get used to the Tobii. Plan for about five or six game sessions building up from 15min to 30, 60, 90, 120 etc. Protip I found was to peg my monitor refresh rate in a multiple of 60hz (the tobii’s IRs flash at 60hz). Admittedly that could be a placebo effect, but 120hz felt a lot more comfortable than 144
Se instala automticamente, se calibra y se usa en pocos minutos.
Lo ms pronto posible hay que dedicarle un interruptor por el teclado, para los momentos de arreglos y de calma en tu juego. Tambin reducir la sensibilidad a los movimientos de ojos. Se maneja mejor con la cabeza (estoy en Microsoft Flight Simulator)
It takes a few tries (10-15 minutes) to get the Tobii configured in MS Flight Simulator to behave the way YOU want it to. Some people like a “dead zone” and some people don’t. Same thing for auto-centering. You set up the sensitivities for pitch, yaw, roll, etc to match what you like. There is a little bit of adjusting YOURSELF to get comfortable with the head-tracking part over-emphasizing movements (a turn of your head 45 degrees moves the view by 90 degrees) and the eye -tracking which is a 1-to-1 movement. A few minutes of flying and you mentally make the adjustment.
Some people don’t like the eye tracking for some flight games, but these are more often for the fast paced, jet shoot-em-ups where the head and eye movements are rapid. For MS Flight Simulator, the pace is more sedate and I find it great to be able to glance over at an instrument and have the Tobii recognize that and move to it. I am very impressed with this technology. The Tobii is well made (of aluminum, I believe) and quite sturdy.
The ONE complaint I have (and I am not alone in this) is the mounting system. It has to be mounted under the monitor to work, and that is OK. But you have to stick the mount to the bottom of your monitor using a double-sided sticky tape. After about a month or so, this tape started coming loose. Apparently this is a common issue. I have re-taped the mount to my monitor, but fully expect the Tobii to start “drooping” again.
To summarize, while it is more expensive than a TrackIR, I think this is well offset by not having to use reflectors, and the additional functionality of the eye tracking.
Fantastic bit of kit , I use it for msfs 2020 and not disappointed, very easy to set up and calibrate , quite expensive but worth it in my opinion.
Bought for husband who loves it. He had to persevere with calibration but now enjoys the flying experience. Couldn’t use vr because of eye issues and prefers the ability to use a joystick and controls as well. Excellent birthday present!
Bought for my son for Christmas he loves it and uses it for Flight Sim. Would recommend
Use on simulations and its a great thing…dont want to go down the VR route so this help a lo
Aprs beaucoup d’change avec le support, retour arrire vers Windows 10 car trop mauvaise gestion des port USB sur Windows 11 et fonctionnement erratique de Eyetracker.
Par rapport au track Ir, que je possde galement:
– Pas ncessaire de porter un casque ou une casquette pour mettre les rflecteurs TrackIR
– Fonctionne trs bien mme pour les porteur de lunettes
– Ajoute le mouvement des yeux celui de la tte, ce qui augmente la prcision et permet d’avoir 2 actions au lieu d’une avec le TrackIR
– A noter nanmoins une plus grande latence dans la ractivit que le TrackIR.
– Ne fonctionne que sous l’cran, impossible de le positionner au dessus.
Trs bonne qualit de fabrication hormis l’attache collante du support qui ne tient pas ds qu’il fait chaud. J’ai du la coller avec une colle plus forte.
Awesome head + eye tracker !! Working flawlessly with DCS World and MSFS 2022, no issues whatsoever.
Only thing I wouldve liked, was extra mounting tape and a long USB extensio
Das Gert ansich ist mega gut, leider taugt die original Halterung nicht, man muss genau berlegen wie man sie klebt. Bei meinem Monitor (Samsung) ist der Ein/Ausschalter direkt mittig unten da wo der tobii installiert werden soll, muss man den Halter nochmal abnehmen weil es nicht passt zum Schalter ist der Kleber dann leider hinber und der Halter somit unbrauchbar.
Dieses Stck Hardware hebt das Fluggefhl im FS auf ein ganz neues Niveau. Nicht ganz billig, spart aber 2 weitere Monitore auf dem Tisch. Fr mich der beste Kauf in 2022.
L’ho provato una settimana, l’idea era carina.. riprodurre in streaming cosa osserviamo e guardiamo pu essere interessante ma alla lunga stanca e pu creare disturba a chi guarda la live.
Su alcuni giochi pu interagire, su molti completamente inutile. E costa pure abbastanza, quindi ho deciso di restituirla.
Treid this with my LG C1 48″ OLED and it is definitely too big. I also have glasses and that may have impacted the tracking, but I couldn’t get this to function as well as I wanted.
I am also fairly sensitive to input lag, and this certainly had a noticeable amount. This could definitely be because of the big display + distance I was sitting from it, but I’ve heard other users mention input lag as a turn-off for this product.
Overall, it’s really neat and I wish I could use it! Hopefully a future version supports bigger displays and lower processing time / input lag.
