What do you think are some challenges that an eyetracker in this specific context has to face? What is your friend mostly struggling with the current solutions? Are there tracking specific challenges related to ALS? Is it mostly a UI/"better prediction" interface issue?

With my group we are developing an eyetracker for studying developmental and clinical populations, which typically present challenges to conventional eyetrackers. It is a spin off from our academic work with infants, and we already have a study almost done that uses it. We are still into the very beginning phase in terms of where this may lead us, but we are interested in looking into contexts where eyetracking for different reasons may be more challenging.
