What is this session all about?
Understanding the basics of how eye gaze AAC systems work—how an
eye tracker interacts with the human eye to predict a communicator’s gaze
point—can greatly increase clinicians’ critical thinking skills during an AAC
evaluation. Participants will learn how eye gaze works as an AAC access
method, and how to determine whether or not eye gaze is an option for
patients/students. Participants will also review common challenges with this
access method, and strategies to increase the rate of success. Eye images
and evaluation screens from the Eyegaze Edge® SGD will be shown to
illustrate the discussion
