Polygonal AOI

August 29, 2023

RealEye, the online eye-tracking solution, has just released a new feature that allows users to create free form areas of interest (AOIs) using polygons. This feature enables users to define more complex and irregular shapes for their AOIs, which can be useful for analyzing eye movements on various types of stimuli. Users can also combine multiple polygons to create one AOI, which can be helpful for grouping related elements together.

Support: What is AOI?

To use this feature, users need to select the “Polygon” option from the AOI toolbar and then click on the points where they want to draw the polygon. Users can adjust the shape and size of the polygon by dragging the points or adding new ones.

This feature is available for all types of studies, including images, videos, and live websites. Users can access the feature from the “AOI” tab on the dashboard. Users can also export the AOI data in CSV format for further analysis.

We hope that this feature will enhance your eye-tracking research and provide you with more insights into how people perceive your stimuli. If you have any questions or feedback, please feel free to contact us at support@realeye.io. Thank you for choosing RealEye!
