Advice Please!

Hi!

I hope that you're all well - just a quick question from me. I am attempting to create a dwell clicker using the EyeTribe as part of my University final project. The project is first and foremost a design project and my coding experience is limited at best.

The prototype which I am currently creating is done in Flash Actionscript 3.0. It is primarily a UI prototype, although I am attempting to facilitate the use of more than one input device (computer mouse/gesture control/eye gaze).

I have implemented buttons within the prototype which are capable of 'self-selecting' after the mouse cursor dwells on them for a period of time. This works very well with a computer mouse, and it also works with a Leap Motion device. However, I am experiencing difficulties with achieving the same outcome with the EyeTribe. I have selected mouse cursor control as on (which works beautifully & accurately by the way) but for some reason, when the cursor is held over the button, it doesn't seem to recognise it.

Any advice you could offer would be a great help. I'm loving using the EyeTribe at the moment, if I can get past this one hurdle hopefully I can achieve something good with it!

Best,
Sam

Maybe your software requires the mouse cursor to STOP when it's over the control? The cursor driven by TheEyeTribe quivers.

Probably the case.

Best result achieve by doing hit-testing using the gaze X & Y coordinates, some coding required ;)
