Hi Chris!

Is mworks compatible with eye tracker other than the eyelink system (e.g. [http://www.arringtonresearch.com/](http://www.arringtonresearch.com/))? Do I need specific plugins?

Thank you in advance

Best

Benedetta

Hi Benedetta,

In addition to [EyeLink devices](https://mworks.github.io/documentation/latest/components/eyelink_device.html), MWorks includes built-in support for [ISCAN eye trackers](https://mworks.github.io/documentation/latest/components/iscan_device.html).

I see that the Arrington Research device you linked to has a [macOS SDK](http://www.arringtonresearch.com/MacUserInterface.html), so it should be possible to create an MWorks interface to it. Options include a traditional, C+±based MWorks plugin or a Python-based interface using MWorks’ [Python](https://mworks.github.io/documentation/latest/components/run_python_file.html) [actions](https://mworks.github.io/documentation/latest/components/run_python_string.html) and [resources](https://mworks.github.io/documentation/latest/components/python_file_resource.html).

I’d be happy to help develop such an interface. However, without access to the device for testing, my ability to do so will be limited.

Cheers,  
Chris
