1 Introduction
The Smart Eye Aurora is an eye tracker designed to deliver insights wherever you are. The
small size of the Aurora makes it easy to switch between different displays and projects, with-
out compromising on the performance. If your needs change in the future, the existing Aurora
can be upgraded to deliver higher framerate.
This manual contains useful information about the Aurora eye tracker, ranging from safety and
compliance to product care. It also contains information about the mounting procedure and
software setup. If any questions or difficulties arises, do not hesitate to contact the support.
1.1 Intended use
The Aurora is primarily designed for fixation-based eye tracking on displays, such as laptops.
The Aurora works well in all indoor illumination conditions, and offers precise and accurate
tracking on displays up to 24”. In addition to eye tracking, the Aurora also delivers precise
head tracking and eyelid tracking.
The Aurora is designed for collaboration, and can be integrated with other sensors and bio-
measuring systems.
