About Neon

A modular eye-tracking device from Pupil Labs.

All the necessary eye-tracking hardware, including a high-speed eye camera, wide-angle scene camera, stereo microphone, and IMU, is housed in a small package "Neon Module" wrapped in water-resistant silicone. This modular design allows for head mounting in a variety of frame shapes, sizes, and styles to suit your research needs.
