Safety
The Tobii PCEye Go has been tested and approved as compliant to all the Specifications and Standards listed in the
Appendix
B Compliance Information, page 55
in this manual and in the
Appendix D Technical Specifications, page 58
-- including, but
not limited to, the Medical Device Directive (MDD) 93/42/EEC. Nevertheless, in order to ensure safe operation of your
Tobii PCEye Go device, there are a few safety warnings to bear in mind:
2.1
Mounting Warning
The Tobii PCEye Go should be mounted according to MANUFACTURER instructions of approved mounts.
Tobii Dynavox or its agents are not liable for damage or injuries to a person or its property due to a Tobii PCEye Go
falling from a mounted configuration. The mounting of a Tobii PCEye Go is done entirely at the user’s own risk.
The double sided tape supplied with the adhesive Magnetic Mounting Plates is designed to permanently attach the
bracket to the monitor/laptop. Attempting to remove the bracket after attaching it using the supplied tape can result in
damage both to the monitor/laptop and the bracket.
Do not lick the tape or place any part of the tape or Magnetic Mounting Plate in one's mouth.
Do not mount the Tobii PCEye Go on monitors positioned above the head or face of a users unless using a dedicated
"fixed mounting" solution.
2.2
Emergency Warning
Be aware that due to the low, but possible, risk of failure, the Tobii PCEye Go should not be relied upon exclusively as
an audio communications, or an environmental control, device in emergencies, as well as in dangerous, or otherwise
important, situations. Do not rely on the device for emergency calls or banking transactions. We recommend having
multiple ways to communicate in emergency situations. Banking transactions should only be carried out with a system
recommended by, and approved according to the standards of, your bank.
2.3
Infrared Warning
When activated, the Tobii PCEye Go emits pulsed infrared (IR) light. Certain medical devices are susceptible to dis-
turbance by IR light and/or radiation. Do not use the Tobii PCEye Go when in the vicinity of such susceptible medical
devices as their accuracy or proper functionality could be inhibited.
2.4
Epilepsy Warning
Some people with
Photosensitive Epilepsy
are susceptible to epileptic seizures or loss of consciousness when ex-
posed to certain flashing lights or light patterns in everyday life. This may happen even if the person has no medical
history of epilepsy or has never had any epileptic seizures.
A person with Photosensitive Epilepsy would also be likely to have problems with TV screens, some arcade games,
and flickering fluorescent bulbs. Such people may have a seizure while watching certain images or patterns on a mon-
itor, or even when exposed to the light sources of an eye tracker. It is estimated that about 3-5% of people with epi-
lepsy have this type of Photosensitive Epilepsy. Many people with Photosensitive Epilepsy experience an "aura" or
feel odd sensations before the seizure occurs. If you feel odd during use, move your eyes away from the eye tracker.
2.5
Magnetic Field Warning
The Tobii PCEye Go Magnetic Mounting Plates contains magnets. Magnetic fields may interfere with the function of
cardiac pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators. As a general rule, maintain a minimum distance of 6
inches (15 centimeters) between any item with magnets and your heart device.
The magnets can also shut off the monitor on a laptop if the laptop is equipped with a magnetic sensor to switch off
the monitor when closing the laptop. If this happens, shut of the sensor on the laptop.
