At Control Bionics, we are dedicated to providing AAC technology that adapts to your unique needs. Through our partnership with IRISBOND, we are proud to distribute the Oskol 2, a sophisticated speech-generating device designed exclusively for the 13″ iPad Air.
The Oskol 2 is powered by Hiru, the world’s first multiplatform eye-tracker, offering a sleek, distraction-free design with no exposed cables. Whether you are a seasoned pro or new to eye tracking, setting up a new device can sometimes lead to questions.
To help you get the most out of your experience, we would like to share a new video from our partners at IRISBOND that answers the top five questions users have about the Oskol 2.
Key Takeaways for Oskol 2 Users
- Perfect Your Calibration: For the best precision, use more calibration targets, such as the 9-point option. You can also customize the target’s color, size, and speed to fit your visual needs.
- Optimize Your Click: Use “dwell control” to select items. If you find yourself clicking unintentionally, try increasing your dwell time by a fraction of a second to ensure clicks are deliberate.
- Improve Accuracy with Positioning: Ensure you are seated comfortably and the device is positioned so your eyes are centered in the on-screen positioning box.
- Use Smart Features: Enable “Snap to Item” to help the cursor magnetize to buttons. You can also use “Smoothing” to dampen shakiness and create a more stable cursor.
- Take a Break: If you are reading long text or watching a video, use the “Pause” feature to put the eye tracking into sleep mode.
