Data Collection with 360 Media for Eye Tracking

Positional eye-tracking data in a 360 video or image

The gaze data points for viewing 360 media represent Cartesian coordinates in a 3D space. These coordinates are the result of an intersection calculation that determines where the user's gaze intersects with the surface of the sphere (the 360 video mapped onto a sphere). 

The data is in standard 3D coordinates, but can be converted to Equirectangular using the Example Script "convert_to_pixels"

To record gaze on specific areas or objects in the media, add regions of interest, including regions that follow moving objects. See 360 Media for everything about using 360 media in SightLab.
