Today I was able to calibrate the Tobii Eyetracking Device. I thought it was really interesting how it is able to track where your eyes are on the screen. I had to look at little dots on the screen until they exploded, and it was actually pretty fun.

I also had to change the warnings set on the program. Finally some success...
