Introducing Look Lab
We are delighted to announce the arrival of Look Lab, a brand-new software package designed for anyone who uses eye gaze technology. The software features a comprehensive collection of 38 accessible games and creative activities that will help people get started and challenge their skills as they progress. Developed in consultation with SEN teachers and professionals, Look Lab activities effectively nurture 12 different eye gaze skills. Each activity encourages users to engage with the screen in different ways, including hitting targets, dwelling, tracking objects and moving the cursor around the screen. There are also customisable options for each activity. Easy mode allows users to explore activities at their own pace, free from the fear of losing or running out of time. Standard mode introduces a competitive edge, where activities increase in difficulty and include time constraints and limit attempts to win. Adam Waits, Head of Assessment at Smartbox. Look Lab introduces eye gaze in a positive and motivating way for AAC users of any age, including teenagers and adults seeking more mature games and creative activities. It is ideal for people who fall into the following categories: The software gives AAC users the autonomy to select activities and modify settings independently, and seamlessly access Grid communication software to have a chat or recalibrate their eye tracker.
