  It involves the lack of in-person human interaction; however, remote proctoring exams are a modern technological innovation that could become the preferred method of testing. Overhead is reduced since students, as well as proctors, require only a device and internet connection. Exams are easier and faster since students can be a broader range of people from different parts of the country or the world.

    This app provides real benefits for education, scientific applications, and business applications. In educational applications, children use eye-tracking apps to build visual processing skills. Scientific applications use eye tracking to better understand eye movements and to develop ways of diagnosing and treating abnormalities. Businesses use eye-tracking apps in market research and product testing. Eye-tracking research has contributed to an understanding of what is driving visual attention.

  This software is used to monitor participants’ eye movements while proctors monitor video, audio and screen share feeds of participants in real time. Feeds may also be recorded. Proctors are able to monitor participants ’ eye movements via video from a remote location. This also allows for more observation in shorter amounts of time. Results from feeds provide analysis and feedback quickly, as well.

This software is a technological advancement that helps researchers understand how humans communicate with their eyes and eye movements. It is used in medical research for the human vision system, and for scientific applications, psychology, marketing, product design, education, testing, and human-computer interaction.    It measures movements known as fixations, saccades, and smooth pursuit. Fixations occur when the eye stops to collect visual data. The longer the length of the fixation, the more information is processed. Saccades are fast jumps that the eye performs between fixations with the goal of acquiring new visual data. Smooth pursuit takes place when looking at an object in motion and following it. Pupil size during gaze tracking can measure a user’s emotional stimuli, attention, and working memory load. Visual attention data suggests a person’s interest in looking at an object, and elements can also be measured through peripheral vision. Eye position, point of gaze...
