What GazeSense is
GazeSense is AI-powered eye-tracking software and an SDK for webcams and 3D sensors. It tracks gaze across a screen or toward objects in a 3D environment, while providing six-degree-of-freedom head tracking. Outputs include 3D gaze vectors, screen gaze points, blink detection, head tracking, and a stated 10–90 Hz sampling range subject to hardware and sensor limits. Accuracy is stated above 1.5 degrees in ideal conditions, but can worsen near screen edges, reaching 5° for calibrated users and 10° for uncalibrated users. Calibration may be automatic or use one-, five-, or nine-point screen methods. The prototyping app runs on Windows 10/11 x64 and Ubuntu 18.04 x64 or later. C++ and Python APIs support application development across platforms.
Good
- Screen and 3D gaze tracking
- Six-degree-of-freedom head tracking
- C++ and Python APIs
- Automatic or multi-point calibration
- 7-day trial available
Watch out
- Accuracy declines near screen edges
- Sensor hardware affects sampling
- No free plan
Who it suits
GazeSense is aimed at researchers and developers prototyping academic, automotive, and HMI applications. It suits projects using webcams, RGB or IR sensors, or supported 3D cameras.
Verdict
GazeSense combines gaze, blink, and head-tracking outputs with SDK access for Windows and Linux prototyping. Its monthly cost, sensor requirements, and stated edge-of-screen accuracy limits should guide selection.
