The fact that you can look in the direction of a ship and then target without having to go from ship to ship till you land on your desired target is awesome!

The only complaint I have with the Tobii is that it doesn’t incorporate a regular face cam, or integrate with FOIP. Being able to have eye tracking and enable FOIP all in the same package would be very cool. Other than that it is an amazing product and I am glad have it

FYI: There is no Linux support for Tobii Eye Tracker 5 (for those interested)

I got a monster Origin build showing up next week, I think I'll finally have the frames make an eye tracker worth while. Great vid, saved for later.

Sounded a bit like Morph in this video, lol! All jokes aside, this is quite a useful and well-made video - nice work!
Some good practical suggestions - thanks. I got one of these late last year and for SC especially (whilst it lacks "native" VR support) and I can vouch for your statements suggesting the device significantly enhances situational awareness and QoL in ship combat and VFR navigation - That's before we even get to "Firefox" / Apache style target-where-you-look missile locking and target tracking! The added bonus is the ability to use one's eyes as if one was "rubbernecking" - looking around at the sights outside the ship's bridge / cockpit and soaking it all in.

The other day-to-day non-gaming benefit I get is that the device "wakes up" my screen when I sit back down to work after wandering off to get a tea / coffee 😉

I am glad that big streamers finally presenting Tobii Eye Tracker 5. I bought one when Star Citizen announced for the first time back in almost 2 years now, and said that Star Citizen will natively support TET5. It works fantastic since that day. Really happy with this awesome device.

I've got a TrackIR and I can honestly tell you that it does tons for immersion. It's expensive as well but a far better investment in the game expdrience than a Connie or MSR.

I've been rocking my Tobii since day one and it's like having eyes on the back of my head, except they're on the front. I've disabled the gaze feature because let's be real, it's creepy when your computer knows where you're looking. Now I only use the head tracking, which makes me feel like a bobblehead, but in a good way.

[DriftaholiC]

The look to target feature is nearly the best part. I wish we could slave the gimbals to our eyes but not our head.

Glad to see you're getting great sponsorships!

Heres what doesnt make sense to me. If i turn my head to the too right to look at something up there. Wont that thing move towards the center of my screen? So then i move my head to follow it to the center which puts it back to the top right orrr i move my eyes down to the left to the center. Which its watching and using so it will counter that movement. Is this not how it works?? It looks great in the videos but i want to see video of the player as they use it.

[TobiiGaming]

This is a solid video, thanks for sharing!

[SpaceMike]

I bought one a year ago and can't play without it. Its a fantastic bit of tech

[bitmau]

Nice breakdown on the options and features. Thanks Mike!

Need a new PC before eye tracking, unfortunately.
I've seen how much value eye tracking adds to games like SC.
Keep up the hard work, Mike.

This is a way better video presenting the Tobii Eye Tracker 5 than the vid of Eradicator xD
I have had an Eye Tracker for about a year now. Yeah it helps a lot and is at least a bridge to VR for SC.

[caaront]

Hey SM, I finally bit the bullet and will get the TET in tomorrow, alt5hough it will be used more in MSFS than in SC lol. I will use it in SC but rarely test any more. Thanks for the great informational video.

[ThatOneBlackGuy]

Devs just need to add VR. Tobii is not worth it today especially with VR headwear introducing in-hardware eye tracking.

[capnsquirrel]

Thank you for sharing your settings. This was really helpful.

[nathanielescudero]

Nice, I wanted to know more about the Tobi, I've just been using a Razer webcam which is ok but only about 85% of inputs are reliable.
