Eye tracking helps healthcare simulation teams understand how learners direct their attention, recognize critical cues, and respond during realistic scenarios. Use gaze insights to strengthen debriefing, compare experience levels, and support clinical skills development.
Instructors and trainers can observe actions, communication, and outcomes. It is harder to know which information a learner viewed before making a decision or which cues went unnoticed.
Wearable eye tracking captures the learner’s visual perspective during the scenario. Gaze video and attention data give facilitators additional evidence for debriefing, feedback, and performance review.

BenefitsEye tracking can support a wide range of training applications by revealing how learners observe, prioritize, and respond during realistic tasks.
Simulation debriefing
Review the scenario from the learner’s perspective and use gaze video to support focused reflection and feedback.
Expert–learner comparison
Compare how experienced clinicians and learners visually approach the same task, procedure or decision point.
High-pressure and emergency scenarios
Examine how learners allocate attention when conditions change quickly, and multiple cues compete for attention.
Procedural skills training
Study attention to anatomy, instruments, monitors, imaging and procedural steps during hands-on practice.
Team-based simulation
Explore how participants distribute attention among the patient, teammates, equipment, and the wider clinical environment.
Clinical reasoning
Identify the visual cues learners viewed before forming an assessment, prioritizing care or taking action.
CompareTraditional simulation methods capture observable performance. Eye tracking adds evidence about the visual behavior that occurred before and during an action.
Documents task completion, delays and errors.
Observes discussions and coordination.
Evaluate skills against defined criteria.
Captures visible behaviors during the scenario.
Reveals reasoning and perceived challenges.
Shows what learners actually notice.
Reveals how learners divide attention across the scenario.
Shows where learners look and how they search for the information.
Identifies which elements were viewed first and what followed.
Highlights differences between experienced clinicians and learners.
Use case spotlightDaiichi Sankyo Propharma used wearable eye tracking to improve visual inspection training for injectable drugs. By comparing how skilled and novice inspectors performed the same inspection tasks, the team could identify visual strategies that were difficult to explain through observation alone.
The gaze data helped reveal expert inspection patterns, areas of visual strain and opportunities to improve training routines. The insights helped reduce inspector training time from one year to six months.
