Visibility matters, because while 82% of manufacturers say training completion rates have improved, fewer than half hit their targets, and only 35% consider their programs 'highly effective'.

Capture real behavior, shorten training time, and make confident business decisions with Tobii’s most versatile eye tracker yet.
More than a pair of glasses
Every business decision starts with what you observe — but what if you’re missing the most important details? Tobii Glasses X, our newest wearable eye tracker, shows you hidden truths about your business in intuitive, affordable, and scalable ways. It's eye tracking simplified, built for challenging industrial environments, ready whenever you need it.
We built Tobii Glasses X to meet one of the most urgent challenges facing businesses in 2025; the need to capture and transfer workforce expertise quickly and accurately to keep operations running smoothly. Teams in manufacturing, quality assurance, assembly, and other industrial settings need a smarter way to capture and interpret human attention where it really happens — on the job, in real environments, without interrupting work.
But understanding attention has historically meant relying on guesswork, intuition, or expensive academic setups. Now, it's as simple as equipping someone with a special pair of glasses and pressing play.
Train faster and smarter
Imagine this: Your most skilled employee moves seamlessly through complex tasks, making the right decisions, completing their work to a high standard and in exceptional time. Traditionally, transferring that skillset to a more junior employee might take weeks or months with no guarantee that the capabilities would be preserved.
And the timing couldn’t be worse. According to a 2023 Verdantix industry report, 71% of manufacturers now consider onboarding a top priority, driven by an aging workforce and high turnover, with nearly half having to significantly increase the time they spend training new starters. This growing burden pulls skilled workers away from value-generating tasks and adds pressure to already stretched teams. Not ideal!
That’s why finding a faster, more effective way to transfer expertise has never been more important. With Tobii Glasses X, you can capture exactly what that employee sees, notices, and prioritizes — down to the smallest glance and hesitation. By visualizing subconscious behaviors, companies like
Denso have already halved their training time, boosting competence, while simultaneously reducing costs.
But our new solution isn’t just about better training — it’s about continuous improvement across your entire business. Minor inefficiencies, subtle blockers, and overlooked safety risks become glaringly obvious when viewed through the eyes of employees on the ground.
Meanwhile, 61% say budget constraints are a significant obstacle to effective training. (Report on the State of Training in Manufacturing, Poka, 2023) The glasses offer an effective training and improvement tool that offers significant ROI through faster workflows, safer environments, and stronger performance across the board.
The glasses also become part of your workflow; without overrunning it. And that’s key, because on-the-job training (OJT) is on the rise with 62% of manufacturers expecting to expand the use of OJT over the next two years. Why? Because it works. Employees learn faster and retain more when training happens in real environments, not classrooms.
Tobii Glasses X fits this oncoming shift perfectly. It’s tough, unobtrusive, and ready to go when you are — capturing behavior where it happens, whether you're on a factory floor, in a lab, or the cockpit of a plane.
Whatever your work, the glasses will help you:
Cut the time it takes to onboard new staff
Capture real-world expertise without interrupting work
Identify unconscious behaviors that impact performance
Reduce training costs while preserving key skills
