Technical Foundations: Fine-Tuning Eye Tracking and iPadOS
Description: What happens when advanced technology meets a complex user journey? For some individuals, success depends on fine-tuning the interaction between a user’s eyes and their iPadOS device. This foundational session provides a technical deep dive into the integration of eye-tracking technology within the iPadOS ecosystem. Participants will learn the essential mechanics of hardware setup and the software configurations necessary for a reliable access method. In addition, the session focuses on customizing and utilizing native iPadOS accessibility tools—such as Hot Corners and Snap-to-Item—to create a robust digital bridge for AAC users. This class is a prerequisite for a longer session coming in September 2026!
Content Disclosure: This session will discuss access to iPads using eye tracking. Much of the information can be applied to iPadOS communication devices from any vendor. Some information will be specific to the Hiru eye tracker from Irisbond and all case studies and clinical examples presented utilize the Oskol 2 hardware. No other eye tracking products will be discussed during this course.
Learning Objectives: As a result of this activity, the participant will be able to:
- Configure iPadOS accessibility tools to enable eye gaze navigation in AAC and mainstream applications.
- Fine-tune eye tracking technology parameters to optimize the growth of emergent and independent user profiles.
- Identify appropriate calibration customization strategies based on user performance and access needs.
