Tobii Tracker 4C

Most Tobii trackers have an "EyeChip" that acts as a dedicated processor lessening the load on your CPU and allowing for lower spec CPU's to run the hardware and most also has head tracking that is not powered by the EyeChip and puts more load on your CPU.

The 4C comes with 2 mounting brackets that you stick to the bottom of your monitor and the tracker just fits into it magnetically.

GP3 HD Eye Tracker

GP3 from gazepoint is another device we use and is pretty heavy on the cpu as it doesn't have an eyechip like the tobii devices to lighten the load on the cpu. As I've learned it has system requirements that need to be met to perform at a decent quality. Gazepoint is a fairly small company in regards to the eyetracker industry but the quality of their products are still able to compare with the big names in the industry.

System Requirements

Intel Core i7 or faster, 8 GB RAM, Windows 7, 8.1 or 10, USB3.0 port; Mac and Linux are not supported at this time.
