StimTrac Module

Data analysis technology for eye tracking mobile devices and computers

The unique StimTrac (Stimulus Tracking) module is incorporated into the powerful Argus Science ETAnalysis software suite to further automate and expedite data analysis for applications where gaze falls on a stimulus device.

Two Eye Trackers in One

With limited funding, it can be difficult to purchase more than one eye tracking solution for all of your research projects requiring multiple types of stimulus. Argus Science ETAnalysis StimTrac Module enables you to use only one eye tracking solution, a head mounted eye tracker, both for projects where one would typically use a remote/desktop eye tracking solution (when displaying stimulus on one flat surface) and for projects where one would use a head mounted solution (when participants need to be mobile, view stimulus on multiple surfaces and/or handle mobile devices). With one powerful software package and a single eye tracker, your research opportunities are now expanded.

Simple Analysis Process

With Argus Science ETAnalysis StimTrac Module, you record both the stimulus presented on the device's screen and your head mounted eye tracking data (from the scene and eye cameras). The final output from Argus Science ETAnalysis StimTrac Module is gaze information superimposed on just the high quality screen video image.


Import your stimulus into Argus Science ETAnalysis StimTrac Module, specify your Areas of Interest (AOI) once and have them applied to all of your participants.


Drill down your data with the Argus Science ETAnalysis StimTrac Module intuitive project based format and reduce your participant data to a series of fixations. Fixations on background images can be presented in size, number, or in duration. These fixations will be automatically assigned to your designated AOI.


As with the entire suite of Argus Science ETAnalysis software, Argus Science ETAnalysis StimTrac Module quickly outputs statistics for a single participant or a large group. It has many useful tools to examine and plot raw data, associate scene images with related segments of gaze data, and define AOI on both static and dynamic images. These built-in tools make it simple to arrange the statistics in user-definable charts and create compelling graphical representations such as scan paths, heat maps, SWARM™, etc.


Argus Science ETAnalysis StimTrac Module eliminates the disadvantage of using a head mounted eye tracker when a remote eye tracker would normally be recommended. It does this by reporting gaze data with respect to a separately recorded stimulus video. The software automates the time consuming process of viewing individual video frames to manually position each AOI.

Fast and Convenient Tools

Statistical fixation data is quickly available via informative graphic displays. Bar plots include: total amount of time in each AOI, percent of time in each AOI, number of fixations in each AOI, average fixation duration, total fixation time, time to first fixation, and average pupil diameter in each AOI.
