1 Introduction
Tobii Pro Nano welcomes you to the world of eye-tracking studies. Pro Nano is a small and portable eye tracker that you
can use for studies on laptops, monitors up to 19ʺ (16:9), mobile devices (using the mobile device stand), real-world interfa-
ces, projections, simulators, and TV screens. It is designed for portability, versatility and ease of use.
Tobii Pro Nano is our smallest, most light-weight research grade eye tracker, featuring the latest technology advancements
from Tobii Pro. The Pro Nano device measures 170 mm (6.69’’) long and weights 59 grams (2.1 oz.), and uses a sampling
rate of 60 Hz. The design also serves as an introduction to extensive studies into human behavior for educational and re-
search purposes.
Use Pro Nano on:
• Windows and Mac computers with an optimal screen size of 19″ or less (16:9)
• Mobile devices, with our Mobile Device Stand
• Real-world setups like physical objects and social interactions, with the Tripod Stand
• Projections, simulators, and larger screens, with the Tripod Stand
1.1 Explanation of admonitions
In this manual we use four (4) levels of admonitions as follows:
The Note symbol is used for notifying the user of something important or of something that needs special
attention.
The Caution symbol is used to inform of something that could cause harm to, or malfunction of, the equipment.
The Warning symbol is used to inform of something in which there is a conceivable risk of harm to the user if the
Warning is ignored.
1.2 Intended use
Pro Nano is primarily intended for fixation-based eye tracking studies on Windows and Mac laptops and Windows tablets.
The Pro Nano system has been tested and proven capable of tracking a large proportion of the population, regardless of
gender and ethnicity, with very high accuracy and precision on portable screens. Its discrete appearance, with fully em-
bedded processing of eye-tracking data, enables flexible and unobtrusive data collection methods. The eye tracker’s
mounting plates enable easy attachment to various screens and the device is connected via a USB 2.0 port to your Win-
dows or Mac computer.
Pro Nano is perfect for any researcher who wants to get started with or explore quality eye tracking as a research method
for fixation-based eye tracking studies in:
• psychology and cognition
• package design in marketing research
• user interface design and development
Pro Nano is our smallest research-graded eye tracker designed for portable labs doing data collection in the field:
• Make your own portable research lab that fits in a backpack
• Collect data wherever your participants are, for instance at universities, hospitals, and public spaces
Pro Nano is well-suited for equipping universities with portable eye tracking solutions that enable students to test eye track-
ing and build knowledge how the technology can be used in different fields, answer research questions and enhance com-
mercial endeavors.
