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!

You can actually manually aim gimbals by looking too. With a head tracker you just end up with a sore neck, but with an eye tracker it's glorious.

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

Awesome! Mine arrives tomorrow! So excited!

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

Glad to see you're getting great sponsorships!

Nice breakdown on the options and features. Thanks Mike!

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.

This is a solid video, thanks for sharing!

My tobii's en route. Thanks for this🎉

Such a fascinating tool. I am intrigued by it for racing as well as that little bit for missile game play.

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.

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

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

I love the Tobii, I've been wanting one for years but haven't had the cash. It's definitely on my list for what to do when I have some money for it. It looks really cool.

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

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.

Just bought one yesterday 15% off had to pop on it.

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.

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.

Nice vid🎉

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.

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 was wondering how to set to tobii up.thanks

I just got one ❤

an eyetracker has been on my hardware wish list for a while...

Plz, could you show your settings! Otherwise i have doubts.

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.

Imagine being able to use the Quest Pro in-game for head, face, and eye tracking!

I was going to write something sarcastic 😂 but this was actually a very informative vid. Nice

Once you go track you never go back.

I actually have a TET5, did not even know this game supported it.

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.

im just gonna wait for the quest 3 and play it in vr with mods

Can we just take a minute to laugh at star citizen during the clip of locking and firing a missile

Tobii is great, but not having the ability to edit head motion curves is a bit of a deal breaker for me. I prefer Track IR for that reason.

I prefer eye tracker to VR because I don't have to wear a stupid big headset. It's good software, and has added conveniences and accessibility features for using your computer.

I've the TrackIR & the Tobii. Both are great, but it is nice not to have to charge an IR clip & have eye tracking. Head tracking is an absolute game changer for all seated experiences and when I don't want to don a VR headset to go sim racing, it still allows the awareness needed for wheel to wheel racing. It doesn't make me suck any less, but definitely a worth while peripheral.

IMHO VR really isn't there yet, and head tracking is a really incredible stop gap.

@@themollerz I guess it really depends on what you play. For Sim Racing, VR is there, but at a high cost. I think it's hard to argue against that. For flight experiences, maybe. But a good head tracking solution is better than playing without one.

@@Anonnymouse53 I do know what you mean. Cool point! I wasn't thinking of racing but more the likes of BMS or DCS. While it is getting there I would consider this the 1999 cell phone phase of VR if you will. I do think it will one day become ubiquitous as much as smart phones are now. AR will no doubt blend into VR at that point in everyday use.

On the way, last piece to complete my setup

my only issue with this video, is that I was hoping int's going to be more indept about best settings for the tobii, but it's not :-(

The best settings are personal.

Tobii is not plug and play. Mess with the configuration a little and I promise you will fall in love.

"For eye tracking, we need to track where you are looking on your screen and therefore the maximum screen size supported is 27" for 16:9 and 30" for 21:9. " This is what forced me to consider other options. I have a 48" monitor.

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

I cannot in any kind of good faith expect or indorse anyone paying for another piece of hardware such as Tobii to play an alpha that is so broken. I also cannot fathom anyone of good conscience trying to justify even for their own profit to be so dishonest as to suggest anyone make such a significant purchase to use on such a dysfunctional alpha testing that they have been dompt into giving money for so they could be used as a free game development tester. Shameful.
