Visagraph Reading System

The system consist of an ordinary personal  computer with analysis software, an measuring unit connected to an USB port on  the computer and measuring goggles. You can use ordinary spectacles under the  measuring goggles. The system records eye movements during reading of a short  text on paper. The eye movement pattern is analyzed, and a number of  characteristics for the reading are calculated automatically. After reading, the  recorded eye movements can be studied as function of time. They can also be  superimposed on the text read and played back in real time or slower.
 

Description of  analysis

The analysis of  the eye movements is completely automatic. Head movements are compensated and  saccades and line shifts are localized. First and last line of text read is  discarded in calculation, since there can be irregularities on these lines. In  the rest of the text, fixations, regressions and fixation times are counted and  calculated. The result is compared to established standard values and presented  both as absolute values and as values relative to standard values
