Getting started with GazePlotter

GazePlotter is a web application for visualizing gaze data from eye-tracking software. It uses interactive scarf plots (or sequence charts) which are built automatically from your eye-tracking data without any manual configuration and data transformation.

The workspace is designed to be easy to use and to provide a quick overview of the data and is available at gazeplotter.com.

On loading the workspace, you will see a demo data visualization. The demo data is a sample of the data from the Tobii Pro Lab software. The demo data contains information about fixations (and AOI hits) and saccades. Only other eye-movement category is EyesNotFound.

Upload data button

You can upload your own eye-tracking data files to the GazePlotter workspace. The platform will automatically detect the file type and start a visualization of your data.

Supported file types

The workspace supports the following file types:

workspace data import

You can also select .json data from the GazePlotter workspace for data upload. This is useful if you want to share your data with someone else.

Reload Demo button

To revert the workspace to its initial state, hit Reload Demo button. This will remove all the data from the workspace and load the demo data again.
