Eye-Tracking Techniques and Its Applications

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue, "Eye-Tracking Techniques and Its Applications", aims to highlight the recent advances, methodologies, and diverse applications of eye-tracking technology.

This Special Issue’s focus is to present breakthroughs in eye-tracking hardware and software and to discuss the development of more accurate and user-friendly eye-tracking systems; it also seeks to explore how eye-tracking can enhance user experience, product design, and interactive systems. Moreover, it aims to explore novel methods for data collection, analysis, and interpretation in eye-tracking studies, highlighting techniques to improve the accuracy and reliability of eye-tracking data. Furthermore, the application of eye-tracking technology spans a wide range of disciplines, including psychology, neuroscience, marketing, education, and human–computer interaction.

This Special Issue will publish high-quality, original research papers in the following overlapping fields:

• Technical developments in eye-tracking hardware and software
• Innovations in calibration and validation techniques in eye-tracking research
• Novel algorithms and models for the interpretation of eye-tracking data
• Applications of eye-tracking in cognitive psychology and neuroscience
• Human–computer interaction and usability studies using eye-tracking
• Marketing and consumer research applications using eye-tracking
• Educational technology and learning analytics using eye-tracking
• Integration of eye-tracking with virtual reality
• Clinical and medical applications of eye-tracking
• Ethical considerations of privacy, consent, and data security in eye-tracking research
• Practical challenges and solutions for conducting eye-tracking studies in real-world settings.
