Professional guidance helps The software itself can be set up by a technically capable family member or user following Tobii Dynavox documentation, but interpreting gaze data meaningfully to assess physical and cognitive abilities — the core purpose of this tool — requires professional knowledge. An ATP, SLP, or OT is needed to design assessment protocols and make sense of the output. Choosing wrong targets or misreading heatmaps could lead to incorrect conclusions about a person's abilities, so professional_recommended is appropriate.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026

Gaze Viewer is Windows software that records where a person's eyes are looking as they use a computer, capturing gaze data across any application — websites, e-books, games, videos — and displaying it as a visual overlay, heatmap, or replay video. It's designed for clinicians, educators, and families who want to understand how someone with limited motor control is using eye gaze: whether they can reliably look at targets, how long they fixate, and whether their skills are improving over time. The software requires a compatible Tobii Dynavox eye tracker (such as a PCEye or I-Series device) to function — it does not work standalone as a vision tool without that hardware. One important consideration: this is an assessment and documentation tool, not a communication or control application itself, so it's most useful as part of a structured evaluation process rather than a day-to-day AT solution.

What Setup Looks Like

  • Out of the box
    If Gaze Viewer is pre-installed on an I-Series device, open the app and begin a recording session with the built-in eye tracker.
  • With a guide
    1. Purchase or confirm Gaze Viewer license (standalone or bundled) and ensure a compatible Tobii Dynavox eye tracker is connected.
    2. Install the software on a Windows computer and pair with the eye tracker following Tobii Dynavox setup documentation.
    3. Configure a recording session targeting a specific application, run a session, then export results as image or video — allow 30–60 minutes for initial setup. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
  • With professional help
    1. An ATP, occupational therapist, or SLP interprets gaze data patterns to assess functional vision and cognitive engagement.
    2. Expect 1–3 evaluation sessions to establish baseline data and track progress over time.
