QTobiiDevTrack

Utility for discovering, testing and developing Eye and Gaze Tracking with Qt, Tobii Stream Engine Native and Tobii Eye Tracking Device.

Features

#	Tracker	Description	Status
1.	Gaze Point	Normalized X/Y-Tracking of gaze at the screen	done
2.	Gaze Point	Denormalized X/Y-Tracking of gaze at the screen	done

5.	User Presence	Boolean for tracking if user is present	done
6.	Head Position	X/Y/Z-Tracking of head position and rotation	done

Development

This utility provides all major tracking capabilities which the eye tracker from Tobii is offering, but still there are a few things to do, to learn and to tinker around with. Please see the TODO.

Requirements

• Tobii Eye Tracking Device (Developed and tested with Tobii Eye Tracker 4C)
• Tobii Stream Engine Native 2.2.x.x
• Qt 5.10.x
• Paket 5.x
• Visual Studio (tested) or MinGW (not tested)
• Microsoft Windows >= 7 (x86/x64)

Building

Dependencies

For managing dependencies Paket is used and the bootstrapper binary executable is included in the directory .paket. Before continuing the build process please install all dependencies by running:

.paket\paket.exe install

MSBuild

To compile and link the application with MSBuild, but without a Visual Studio Project nor Solution, configure the CLI environment with vcvarsall, where [product] is Community, Professional, etc., [YYYY] the version of VS 2015/2017/etc. and [target] is either x86 or x64.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\[YYYY]\[product]\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat" [target]

Inside this environment run qmake, nmake and mt to build either a debug or release build:

qmake qtobii-dev-track.pro
nmake [debug|release]
mt.exe -manifest ..\qtobii-dev-track.mf -outputresource:qtobii-dev-track.exe

Qt Creator

To compile and link the application inside Qt Creator just open the qtobii-dev-track.pro, run qmake and build it. When using shadow builds make sure to add one additional build step to copy the packages directory to the build directory before running jom. Otherwise linking will fail due to missing tobii_stream_engine.lib.

Visual Studio

To compile and link the application inside Visual Studio generate a Visual Studio project file with qmake and then proceed and build the project.

qmake -tp vc qtobii-dev-track.pro

MinGW

To compile and link the application with MinGW run:

qmake qtobii-dev-track.pro
mingw32-make

qtobii-dev-track's Issues

Create issues for all open and pending TODO items

Description

For further development of this utility the idle todo items from the TODO.md files should be collected and for every such item there should be one issue created here at Github.

Perhaps in doing this development would be picked up and continued by me or someone else.
At least the tasks would be more exposed, easier to handle, simpler assignable and way better to track.
