We’ve been involved in the organization of two co-located events at this year’s ETRA conference: Eye Tracking for Spatial Research (ET4S) and Eye Tracking and Visualization (ETVIS). Even though ETRA and all co-located events had to be canceled, the review process was finished regularly, and accepted papers are now available in the ETRA Adjunct Proceedings in the ACM Digital Library.
Accepted ET4S papers are also linked from the ET4S website.
The 5th edition of ET4S is taking place as a co-located event of ETRA 2020 in Stuttgart, Germany, between 2 and 5 June 2020.
The 1st Call for Papers is now available online.
Our group has organized the “Eye Tracking for Spatial Research” event as a track at this year’s ETRA conference in Denver, Colorado. It featured four full paper presentations, one short paper presentation, as well as an invited talk (see program). A dominant topic at this year’s ET4S was augmented/mixed/virtual reality. As a particular highlight, our invited speaker Sophie Stellmach (Senior Scientist at Microsoft) highlighted the fascinating opportunities of HoloLens 2, an upcoming mixed reality device that will have eye tracking capabilities included.
The GeoGazeLab was further involved with Fabian’s talk on “POI-Track: Improving Map-Based Planning with Implicit POI Tracking” and Kuno presenting his work on “Space-Time Volume Visualization of Gaze and Stimulus” in the ETRA main program. A paper co-authored by Martin was presented by one of his co-authors (“Eye Tracking Support for Visual Analytics Systems: Foundations, Current Applications, and Research Challenges”).
The invited talk by Sophie Stellmach (Microsoft) …
… attracted quite some audience.
Testing HoloLens 2 after ET4S.
The program of ET4S 2019, a track at ETRA, is now available on the website: http://et4s.ethz.ch/program/.
We’re excited to announce Sophie Stellmach (Senior Scientist @ Microsoft, HoloLens team) as this year’s invited speaker at ET4S. The title of her talk is “Eye Tracking in Mixed Reality and its Promises for Spatial Research”.
ET4S 2019 is going to take place 26 June 2019, 15:30 – 18:00, at the ETRA conference in Denver, Colorado, USA. Attendance of ET4S is included in the ETRA registration.
A quick reminder for the “Eye Tracking for Spatial Research” event that is going to be a track at the “2019 ACM Symposium on Eye Tracking Research & Applications” (ETRA).
Feel free to also forward the Call for Papers to any interested colleagues.
We look forward to seeing you again!
We’re glad to announce the 4th edition of the “Eye Tracking for Spatial Research” (ET4S) event which will take place June 25-28, 2019 in Denver, Colorado, USA.
After three successful ET4S workshops in Scarborough (2013), Vienna (2014) and Zurich (2018), the 4th edition of ET4S will be organized as a conference track at the “ACM 2019 Symposium on Eye Tracking Research & Applications in Denver” (ETRA)
ET4S aims to bring together researchers from different areas who have a common interest in using eye tracking for research questions related to spatial information and spatial decision making.
The Call for Papers is now available (Paper abstracts due: December 14, 2018).
Many thanks to all participating in this workshop and making it an inspiring event.
We have published the workshop proceedings through the ETH Research Collection.
The program of the ET4S workshop on 14 January 2018 is now available on the workshop website: http://spatialeyetracking.org/et4s-2018/program
You have an interesting eye tracking research prototype to show? You would like to join the ET4S workshop, but have missed the deadline for regular papers? You have a regular paper accepted and would like to take the opportunity to gain even more visibility and get direct feedback for your system?
We’ll have a dedicated demo session at the ET4S workshop in January 2018 in Zurich. We hope you consider submitting a short abstract (1 page) with a demo proposal (before November, 8).

We are glad to announce that the ET4S workshop 2018 will be opened with a keynote given by Roman Bednarik, an adjunct professor at the School of Computing, University of Eastern Finland:
Predicting user states from gaze and other multimodal data
Abstract: In this talk I will present research conducted by our team at UEF related to user state recognition during problem solving and other interactive contexts. We adapt and apply machine learning techniques to model behavioral and mental states, including action prediction and problem-solving state prediction.
Due to several requests, the submission deadline for the ET4S 2018 workshop has been extended to
11 October 2017
Registration for the ET4S workshop and the LBS2018 conference is now open:
Early bird discount will be available until 28 November 2017.
We are looking forward to seeing you in Zurich.
We’re glad to announce the 3rd International Workshop on Eye Tracking for Spatial Research (ET4S), which will take place January 14, 2018 in Zurich.
The workshop aims to bring together researchers from different areas who have a common interest in using eye tracking for research questions related to spatial information. This is the 3rd edition of the workshop, after two successful ET4S workshops in Scarborough (2013) and Vienna (2014). This time the workshop will be co-located with the 14th International Conference on Location Based Services (LBS 2018).
The workshop will be opened with an invited talk given by Roman Bednarik, an adjunct professor at the School of Computing, University of Eastern Finland.
The Call for Papers is now available (Paper submission deadline: September 27, 2017).
ET4S 2018 is supported by Ergoneers.
A double Special Issue on “Eye Tracking for Spatial Research” in Spatial Cognition&Computation, guest-edited by Peter, Ioannis, Martin, and Andrew Duchowski, has appeared [URL].
Nineteen manuscripts were submitted to an open Call for Submissions, out of which seven were finally accepted after a rigorous review process.
The Special Issue commences with an overview article, authored by the Guest Editors: “Eye tracking for spatial research: Cognition, computation, challenges” [URL, PDF].
We are planning a Special Issue on “Eye Tracking for Spatial Research” in Spatial Cognition and Computation: Call for Submissions (PDF).
