Eye tracking is a technology and methodology employed to monitor and record the movement and focus of a person's eyes while observing a visual stimulus, such as a screen, image, or physical environment. This technology enables researchers to comprehend where a person is looking, the duration of their gaze on specific areas, and the patterns of their visual attention.
The main types of eye tracking include eye-attached tracking, optical tracking, and electrooculography. Eye-attached tracking involves the use of an eye attachment, such as a specialized contact lens, to measure the movement of the attachment. It encompasses both hardware and software components and can be utilized in remote and mobile locations. Applications for eye tracking technology span various sectors including healthcare, retail, research, automotive, consumer electronics, and others.

The growth of the eye-tracking market is anticipated to be driven by the increasing demand for assistive communicators. Assistive communicators serve as tools aiding individuals with communication impairments, enhancing their ability to express thoughts, ideas, and needs. Eye-tracking technology plays a crucial role in this domain, enabling users to control and navigate assistive communicators by tracking their eye movements. This facilitates a more natural and efficient means of communication. A report published in May 2022 by The World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) revealed that over 2.5 billion individuals require assistive products, including communication and cognition-supporting applications. This number is projected to rise to 3.5 billion by 2050 due to global population aging and the increased incidence of non-communicable diseases. Consequently, the heightened demand for assistive communicators is expected to propel the growth of the eye-tracking market.
