new Tobii Pro eyetracker and SDK with MATLAB binding

Hi all,
i'm considering getting a new eye tracker and just received an announcement for a nice new product from Tobii. It's a long skinny self-contained box that you can place at the bottom of your existing screen, and control from MATLAB using their free software SDK which has MATLAB bindings for macOS. They have two models, one for 60 Hz, and one for 120 Hz. A virtue of the new pro model is that you don't need to restrain the head at all.

Does anyone have experience or advice regarding control of Tobii from MATLAB in macOS?

Best
Denis

Here's the info I got from Tobii:

Pro X3-120: http://www.tobiipro.com/ product-listing/tobii-pro-x3- 120/

Pro X2-60: http://www.tobiipro.com/ product-listing/tobii-pro-x2- 60/


"We also offer a free Tobii Pro SDK for direct interface via custom programming and scripts. The SDK has bindings for MATLAB.


"I will make a quick point that we are about to transition to a brand new SDK within the next 6-8 weeks or so. Our SDK 3.0 has been around for several years and we’ve complete revamped and improved it for 2017. It will now be called Pro SDK (essentially ver 4.0). I’m going to provide you with info how to get at the new SDK, but please keep in the that it is still in beta until around mid-March.

"Please follow this link below and navigate to the bottom and click on the appropriate link for the language binds you want to receive. Bindings are available for MATLAB in both Windows and Mac. After clicking on the bindings of choice, you’ll verify your email and will be sent all the materials right after.

"Here are the price points on the two Tobii Pro eye trackers we addressed:

"Pro X2-60: Edu price - $11,600 ($12,900 list)

Pro X3-120: Edu price - $13,400 ($14,900 list price)"


"You still have to factor in the cost of the actual eye tracker hardware, but there are a number of options in our product portfolio at different price points I can readily address with anyone who is interested to learn more.

"Here is another link to the Applications Marketplace on our website. Here you can share, download and find information about the tested and available software applications from independent research groups that function together with Tobii Pro eye trackers. (Most of these apps will have been built on the Tobii Analytics SDK 3.0). There are a number that leverage MATLAB scripts.
