Annual Medical Device Human Factors and Usability Engineering Conference

Event details

The Annual Medical Device Human Factors and Usability Engineering Conference brings together professionals across medical device design, human factors, usability engineering, and regulatory disciplines to advance the development of safe, effective, and user-centered devices. As usability and human factors play an increasingly critical role in both product performance and regulatory approval, the conference offers a valuable forum for sharing best practices and real-world insights. Through case studies, discussions, and interactive sessions, attendees explore key topics such as risk management, interface design, usability testing, and documentation, while also gaining exposure to emerging approaches like human-centered design and risk-based usability engineering and how these can be integrated into modern development workflows.

Tobii will be onsite to demonstrate how eye tracking can bring objective insight into user attention and performance within medical device development.

Visit us at our booth to learn how eye tracking can support usability testing and human factors research.

Tobii Talk

Making attention visible: Eye tracking for stronger human factors and UX evidence in medtech

June 11 at 11:40-12:10

Speaker: Matteo Venerucci, Research Scientist, Tobii

This talk demonstrates how Tobii Pro’s screen-based and wearable eye tracking solutions add an objective layer to usability engineering by making visual attention measurable within realistic clinical workflows. Drawing on clinical investigations, including the University of Massachusetts “Seeing Through Nurses' Eyes” study, it highlights how eye tracking can identify risk hotspots, support iterative design improvements, and strengthen evidence in critical areas such as alarm and warning visibility, workflow clarity, and information placement.
