1 Introduction 

The Chin Rest is a solution to hold a participant’s head in place when conducting eye tracking 

experiments with screen-based eye trackers. 
Tobii Pro eye trackers are designed to capture high-quality eye tracking data while allowing for 

natural head movements. However, some experiments may benefit from stabilizing the 

participant’s head position by using a chin rest, for example, to reduce the influence of head 

movements on the eye movement signals or in experiments where precise control of stimuli is 

essential. 
The Chin Rest may be used for microsaccade studies, antisaccade experiments, studies within 

reading research, or other applications.

The Information symbol is used for notifying you of something important or of

The Tip symbol signifies a way to make a function or procedure easier. 

 

 

The Warning symbol is used to inform of something in which there is a conceivable risk
