Eye Tracking

The ExpLAB offers an eye tracking station for recording and analyzing eye movements that allow conclusions to be drawn about human behavior.

In addition to a high-quality Tobii eye tracker, the station provides sensors and tools for measuring facial expressions, as well as pulse and skin conductance. The iMotions software platform can be used across disciplines for research projects.

Areas of application include MKW (reception research), psychology (cognitive and advertising psychology), linguistics (reading and language research), business administration (market research) and (business) education (investigation of learning processes).

The eye tracking station is freely accessible to students, lecturers and researchers after a short introduction.
