A partner from idea to implementation

Bringing eye tracking into a product takes more than technology. It takes experience in integration, optimization, development, and deployment. 

Tobii works with organizations ranging from startups and research institutions to global manufacturers and companies in highly regulated industries. Our partnerships can span hardware integration, application development, customization and professional services. 

Whether you're exploring a new concept or preparing for volume production, our teams work alongside yours to help turn eye tracking into a solution that works in practice. 

A partner from idea to implementation
  • Technical expertise 

    Work with specialists in eye tracking, optics, sensors, algorithms and integration. 

  • Flexible collaboration 

    Engage Tobii at the level your project requires, from technology to customized development. 

  • Experience at scale 

    Benefit from experience across research systems, consumer electronics and volume deployments. 

Leading the evolution of eye tracking technology

Eye tracking is a multidisciplinary challenge. It requires expertise in vision science, optics, sensors, algorithms, machine learning and human behavior — and Tobii has spent decades developing that expertise. 

Our technology is supported by an extensive eye tracking patent portfolio and knowledge built from eye images, real-world applications, and continuous research and development.  

Leading the evolution of eye tracking technology
  • Algorithms built around human vision 

    Our knowledge of eye anatomy, geometry, and behavior informs the algorithms that turn sensor data into reliable gaze information. 

  • Hardware and software developed together 

    Expertise across cameras, sensors, processing and algorithms allows us to optimize the complete eye tracking system rather than treating each component in isolation. 

  • Innovation that reaches real products 

    Our technology has helped establish eye tracking as both a research methodology and an input technology in areas ranging from consumer devices to XR.  

One eye tracking foundation. Many ways to use it.

Eye tracking requirements change with the application. A controlled research study, a real-world behavioral study, a headset and a mass-produced device don't need the same form factor or performance profile. 

Tobii's portfolio spans research eye trackers, wearable systems, software, components and integration technologies — giving organizations the flexibility to choose an approach suited to their application while benefiting from a common foundation of eye tracking expertise.

What should you look for in an eye tracking partner? 

Eye tracking systems can differ significantly in performance, flexibility, and the support surrounding them. When evaluating a solution, consider more than a single specification. 

1. Proven performance 

Can you understand how the technology performs? 

Look for clearly documented measures such as accuracy, precision, data loss, and tracking robustness — together with information about how those results were measured. This makes it easier to assess whether performance is relevant to your intended use. 

2. Robust tracking 

Will it work for the people and environments you need to study? 

Consider how the eye tracker performs across different participants, head positions, lighting conditions, viewing distances, and study environments. The conditions that matter will depend on how and where you intend to use eye tracking. 

3. Access to your data 

Will you have the data you need? 

Look at what gaze and eye data you can access, how it can be exported, and whether you can work with it in your own analysis tools and workflows. This becomes particularly important for advanced and custom research. 

4. A complete ecosystem 

Can the technology support your workflow? 

The eye tracker is only one part of a study. Consider the software available for recording and analysis, compatibility with other research tools, integrations, APIs, and options for different research setups. 

5. Expertise and support 

Will you have help when you need it? 

Look beyond troubleshooting. Training, technical support, methodological resources, documentation, and access to eye tracking expertise can all help you get more from the technology over time. 

6. Flexibility for the future 

Can the technology grow with your needs? 

Your requirements may change. Consider whether the provider can support different eye tracking setups, more advanced methodologies, integration with other technologies, or deployment into products and applications. 

Tobii brings together eye tracking technology, software, research expertise, training, and support to help customers choose and use the right solution for their needs.
