And why do I get so many bad pixels in the live stream?

@user-854e02, that sort of pixelation is likely because something is slowing your system down. As my colleague had mentioned, a likely suspect would be whatever is using 95% of your RAM. Did you manage to find a culprit?

hello i am using meta quest 2 and i want to integrate pupil lab addon for the eye tracking.

user-2e0f13 09 September, 2023, 05:03:25

for my research i want to capture the live image of the user is pupil product able to provide me that raw image data?

Hi @user-2e0f13! Our eye tracking systems do expose live images of the wearer's pupils. That said, we don't have a turnkey solution for something like the Quest 2. It would require prototyping of mounts to fit our hardware into the HMD, according to the geometries and constraints of the system.

One option would be to get a de-cased version of our existing binocular VR Add-on: https://pupil-labs.com/products/vr-ar/.

Another would be to go for a 'bare metal' version of our newest eye tracker, Neon: https://pupil-labs.com/products/neon/shop. We offer access to the 3D geometries of the nest and module to enable prototyping: https://github.com/pupil-labs/neon-geometry.

Both options have their pros and cons. Neon would usually get my vote since it samples gaze in real-time at 200 Hz and is significantly more user friendly when compared to the VR Add-on which requires user-calibration and a very controlled environment to get the best results.

That said, if you can share some further details of your use-case, I can try to offer more concrete advice.

user-2e0f13 09 September, 2023, 09:44:00

any other option or any vr headset which can give me the raw image data?

Hi @user-2e0f13! Our existing VR Add-ons do fit the HTC Vive, Vive Pro and Vive Cosmos. Using that combination of eye tracking HW and headset will get you the raw eye image data

thanks

The Eyelink toolbox is for SR-Research Eyelink gazetrackers, not Pupil Labs eyetrackers, no?

user-5ba46b 13 September, 2023, 16:10:17

You're right. I apologize. My mistake sending here.

Hi @user-cdcab0, I don't know if this is the proper place to ask the following, I hope so. I need to extract .csv for pupils movements from several folders containing pupil recordings, and I was wondering if there is a faster way rather than simply drag and dropping the folder on Pupil Player. Is there any proper reference on the documentation or a way through source code to automatize this process? Thank you in advance.

user-cdcab0 14 September, 2023, 21:30:09

Hi, @user-a60706 👋🏽 - although I haven't used it, this project has come up in the past and I believe some of our users have had success with it: https://github.com/tombullock/batchExportPupilLabs. Definitely worth checking out - let us know how it works for you

user-fd0659 14 September, 2023, 21:30:42

Sorry to ask another question at the same time, but i was wondering if its possible to activate a camera via bluetooth

user-cdcab0 14 September, 2023, 21:36:10

Hi, @user-fd0659 - I'm not exactly sure what you mean. Can you elaborate? I saw your other question in 🥽 core-xr, and it was a little unclear to me as well. Maybe tell us about what you're working on and trying to achieve?

user-fd0659 14 September, 2023, 21:30:51

@user-cdcab0

user-fd0659 14 September, 2023, 21:37:26

Sorry bout my english. My main question is this: can i use the code to run in a mobile device? If not, the data can communicate through an app

user-cdcab0 14 September, 2023, 21:40:54

Which code (to run on a mobile device) are you referring to?

  • If you're talking about Pupil Capture (for Pupil Core and DIY headsets), the answer is "no" for iOS and Android devices.
  • If you're talking about the Companion software for Neon or Pupil Invisible, these headsets come with an Android device for their respective Companion software to run on. These apps are available in the Google Play store, but not available for iOS
  • If you're referring to something else, please elaborate
user-fd0659 14 September, 2023, 21:43:08

Can you explain to me the second topic ?

user-cdcab0 14 September, 2023, 22:03:05

Our Neon headset plugs into an included Android device that runs an app called Neon Companion. This app records data from the headset and can also stream the data to another machine in real time. It's the standard way of using our Neon headset

user-a60706 14 September, 2023, 22:44:51

Thanks a lot! Do you know by any chance if the pointed "info.csv" in player_methods.py module, line 196 inside load_meta_info func (I'm referring to the version in the repo you linked me) has been replaced in more recent releases by a JSON named info.player?

user-cdcab0 14 September, 2023, 23:00:07

I don't, as I haven't ever looked into it myself. I did a quick search in the server though to see if anyone else encountered that, and I found a similar project that appears to do the same thing but is maybe a little more fresh. Maybe worth checking this one out too?

user-a60706 18 September, 2023, 15:15:42

Hi dom, thanks to your help I made huge progresses. Just a question, do you have any suggestion in extracting gaze_positions as well pupils_positions? I'm working with the last project you pinned and it only provides pupils_positions.csv files, and I wonder if there are also related project for the gaze files. Thank you in advance!

user-cdcab0 18 September, 2023, 21:06:57

Ah, that's unfortunate. Those are the only batch exporters that I know of, but that second one had some commits from just this year. If you submit an issue on their GitHub, the developer may be able/willing to add that for you

user-f99202 23 September, 2023, 15:39:51

Hello, I bought the DIY pupil lab eye tracker and am in the process of setting it up. I tried to install the pupil software (Linux version) on Raspbian but it would not install. Could you guide me on how to get it installed on Raspbian?
