Research-Grade Eye Tracking and Analysis

Helix is a complete eye tracking system. From experiment creation through statistical analysis — one integrated Python workflow at half the cost of traditional systems.

The Problem

Existing eye-tracking systems stall research halfway — data processing is clunky, validation is tedious, and robust statistical analysis tools are missing.

Incomplete Pipeline

Researchers often cobble together custom scripts across multiple languages just to process and analyze their data.

Wasted Research Time

Trainees spend months writing and debugging code for data processing and analysis, diverting effort from core research.

High Costs

Leading systems cost $35,000-$40,000, often relying on proprietary formats and outdated software (e.g., MS-DOS).

Technical Debt

Different lab members and labs reinvent the wheel, producing pipelines that fail to generalize across projects and labs.

Our Solution

End-to-End Workflow

Full pipeline: experiment design through Bayesian statistical analysis—in one integrated system.

Python-Only

Built entirely in Python. Python is free, open-source, and industry-standard for data science.

~50% Cost Savings

Research-grade quality at about half the cost of EyeLink or Tobii systems.

Readable Data Files

Clean CSV files throughout—no proprietary formats. Data organized by type and processing stage.

Modern Hardware & OS

USB3 machine vision camera, single-computer setup; runs on modern Linux OS.

Expert Support

Backed by eye-tracking researchers with decades of combined experience.

Python
# Import Helix software suite functions
import helix

# Import experiment, calibration, and recorded data
E, add_columns = helix.import_experiment_data(base_dir)
C = helix.import_calibration_data(base_dir)
R = helix.import_recorded_data(base_dir, C, marker_key, layout)

# Identify and exclude bad trials
R, E = helix.exclude_bad_trials(R, E, threshold=30)

# Generate Fixation dataframe from recorded dataframe
F = helix.create_fixation_df(R)
