The World Model is simply a 3D wireframe of the test environment allowing key objects to be drawn and named. The manufacturer understood the advantages of using the Smart Eye 3D world model to greatly simplify their research process. Using the Smart Eye Smart Recorder tool on top of our Smart Eye Pro product, we were able to provide gaze overlay inside the cab as well as outside the cab using additional cameras to scale the system to expand the field-of-view to meet their research objectives.

They were interested in monitoring driver gaze within the cab as well as outside of the cab, which is a challenging research task. One farm equipment manufacturer uses our technology for product design. Smart Eye Pro can help overcome these challenges. And with the elderly, they often wear glasses: most eye tracking systems don't allow you to wear glasses underneath the eye trackers. Smart Eye Pro allows for completely naturalistic eye tracking, meaning test subjects do not need to wear clumsy headgear or have wires attached.
If you are using a more traditional eye tracker, children may not want to wear something on their head and headgear can easily get bumped during testing. When researchers conduct age-based studies and face potentially challenging subjects like children or the elderly, the methodology of collecting data becomes important. We have also branched into other areas such as the medical field, as well as neuroscience and psychology research. All of the US and Canadian military branches utilize Smart Eye Pro for a lot of their research applications. We have a number of aviation customers: FAA, NASA, US Air Force, US Navy. The practical applications of eye tracking in human factors research
Our Smart Eye Pro product has been instrumental in applications to decrease the time to train a pilot and to improve the capabilities of pilot training. The use of eye tracking in the aviation industry has also grown significantly in the last 5-10 years, both for pilot and crew monitoring, as well as pilot performance and training. We do a lot of work with HMI researchers for development for things like infotainment design, cluster design and heads-up displays. On the automotive research side, we do driver monitoring and driver performance evaluations. Today we have over 19 global manufacturers and over 190 vehicles that will be launching with the Smart Eye Driver Monitoring System. We are a unique company in that we can support automotive companies from research to development, validation and even into production. Smart Eye got its start in the automotive industry and has been working in it for over 20 years. That allows you to do gaze tracking outside the vehicle and inside the vehicle. We have another product called Smart Recorder, which does a gaze overlay outside of a cockpit onto a video camera image. Lastly, we provide a number of peripherals that can do other things, like screen grabbing for instance, where you can do a gaze overlay directly on a video display.
We also have the XO, which is an all-in-one camera solution, so the cameras and the flashes are all built into one small box that utilizes the same interface as Smart Eye Pro, but it's built for not only single screens but can track around the screen as well. It is a non-intrusive, head and eye tracking multi-camera system that can be scaled up to eight cameras, which allows it to fit in almost any test environment. Our flagship product is called the Smart Eye Pro. How does Smart Eye's Technology Work for Human factors? Our high end eye trackers are best suited for more sophisticated environments involving multiple screens or a cockpit, and it works best when the test subject is either seated or semi-stationary, such as a driver or a pilot. While many eye tracking systems track on a single screen, we do that but go much further. Today, our technology is powering innovation at NASA, Airbus, Boeing, Volvo, Daimler, Audi, GM, Harvard University and many more. Hundreds of companies, research organizations and universities all over the world use Smart Eye's technology to reach new behavioral research breakthroughs. Thanks to its unparalleled performance in complex situations, our eye trackers offer deep insights into human behavior in automotive, aviation, assistive technology, behavioral science and many more fields. Smart Eye develops the world's most advanced eye tracking technology for behavioral research in complex test environments. How Eye Tracking Helps Researchers More Efficiently Analyze Human Behavior
