The tracker device has been connected but is not working

Postby uriz.goldman » 05 Jul 2016, 18:28

Hello -

As of this morning my eye tracker is not working anymore, I've been doing some research in this forum and it seems that it might be an issue related to the firmware?

In any event, the PC is the same that I have been using for a few months to run the eye tracker and it had been working great until today. I tried uninstalling the SDK and installing it back with no results, can you please help?

This is the log file:

Not sure if this is going to help anyone, but after much troubleshooting I realized that the eyetribe server exe file was initializing my laptop's built in camera and therefore the tracker was not working. I went ahead, disabled the camera and the tracker started working. :roll:

Thanks,
