MSFS detects Tobii straight away, and is configured using sensitivity sliders. RESET and On/Off can be mapped to the keyboard. Performance in MSFS is every bit as good as TrackIR. Much more natural, in fact, because it tracks both eye and head movement. So, your eyes move first, followed by your head - just as in the real world. As an example, when scanning the instruments, you just move your eyes, and then maybe your head a little to look out the left or right windows. You don't have to point your face at things, as you do with TrackIR. That said, you can adjust the percentage combination of eye movement and head movement: move the slider all the way to the left, and it will only follow your head, move it the other way and it will only follow your eyes. It'll be interesting to experiment further with that combination.

What if you wear glasses?

I wear them all the time at the computer and have had no problem with the Tobii.

I also wear glasses when using the computer, and no problem at all.

How are you guys getting on with the Tobii? I'm considering buying one whilst it's on sale.
