The software, called ASTIDET (Advanced Stimuli Design for Eye Tracking), has been interfaced in real time with a high speed videobased eye tracking system in order to obtain a reliable measurement of saccades. Two saccadic paradigms have been tested (gap and memory guided tasks) in 10 normal subjects. The preliminary results confirm that ASTIDET is a user-friendly software and can be interfaced with a video-based eyetracking device in order to obtain reliable measurement of saccades. KEYWORDS: video-based eye tracking; saccades; analysis; software PURPOSE The aim of this study was to develop an independent, flexible, and easily programmable software program for generating visual stimuli for eye-movement studies. 1 We developed a software program called ASTIDET (Advanced Stimuli Design for Eye Tracking) as an easy-to-use program for stimulus generation, real-time data acquisition, and analysis in video-based eye-tracking applications. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION ASTIDET allows quick design of two-dimensional video sequences to be used as stimuli for a wide spectrum of eye-tracking paradigms. ASTIDET was developed in Visual C++ in order to benefit from its flexibility and also to allow possible future Address for correspondence: Antonio Federico, M.D., Dept. of Neurological and Behavioral Sciences, Medical School, University of Siena, Viale Bracci 2, Siena, Italy.

2 576 ANNALS NEW YORK ACADEMY OF SCIENCES FIGURE 1. Eye-tracking functional scheme. ASTIDET acts as a stimulus generator for evoking eye movements and performs real-time acquisition of eye movements and blink removal. integration with advanced graphical libraries (such as VTK or Open GL) and virtual reality applications. ASTIDET works on a PC monitor (the editor monitor ), allowing interactive design of a visual stimulus, which is then presented on a second monitor (the scene monitor ) in front of which the subject is seated. The editor interface allows design of a static version of the dynamic stimulus and specification of the motion (along straight lines) and timing parameters of the visual targets (colored dots) that make up the visual stimulus. Additionally, the program allows integration of stimulus multimedia applications (e.g., MPEG, MPG, and AVI movies) that can be loaded into the scene monitor for specific purposes. As shown in the functional scheme (FIG. 1), ASTIDET works together with a video-based eye-tracking system in which the remote infrared pan tilt camera (ASL model 504 multispeed), running up to 240 Hz, tracks the eye. The infrared camera works by capturing video images of the pupil and corneal reflection of the subject s eye. These images (video frames) are processed in real time by the controller module that is provided with the eye-tracking system. The controller defines the line of gaze by extrapolating the x and y coordinates relative to the screen being viewed. ASTIDET can read eye data in real time via a standard RS232 connection with the controller; thus, it is able to process online data of the subject s gaze and pupil size. Acquired data are prefiltered for blinks by the ASTIDET program, and then filtered again (Gaussian filtering) for blinks and other noise components of the signal using ILAB for Matlab, 2 which currently includes functions for detection and analysis of saccades. The editing interface (FIG. 2) consists of a grid reference with a simple and userfriendly graphic interface: by clicking the left mouse button, the operator can set the points through which the animated sequences will move. This task can be performed easily using the grid reference system, allowing the supervisor to design the static sequence precisely. The spacing between grid lines can be selected by the operator, depending on the subject-to-monitor distance and the cm/pixel ratio for the screen. The value in degrees corresponding to the position of the mouse can be visualized on the grid interface. With the right mouse button the operator defines the parameters

By clicking the left mouse button, the operator can set the points from which the animated sequences will move. describing the motion of the target, that is, the velocity, color, and size (in pixels) of the moving dot. It is also possible to make the target disappear for a predefined time interval and then to make it reappear in another part of the monitor. These properties allow the system to generate a wide spectrum of eye-tracking paradigms. 3 In addition, the previously created static scene can be saved for later use with ASTIDET. METHODS In order to evaluate the performance of ASTIDET, we generated specific saccadic paradigms and tested them on 10 subjects (all of whom gave informed consent) at the University of Siena. In the experimental setup, the subject was placed in a dark room with the eye at 72 cm from the scene monitor. The visual angle was 25. To minimize head movement, the head of the subject was constrained using a chinrest. The spatial resolution of the eye-tracker (0.1 deg), its sampling rate (240 Hz), and the linear range (±30 horizontally, ±20 vertically) were sufficient for reliable measurement of saccades. Calibration of the tracker device was performed before each trial using the ASTIDET software by having the subject look at a sequence of nine targets on the scene monitor. Offsets and infrared camera parameters were adjusted iteratively by the experimenter until the line of gaze coincided with each of the nine points. Each subject was tested using two frequently used saccadic paradigms (gap task and memory-guided saccadic task), during two separate experimental sessions. 4 The gap stimulus may elicit both regular saccades and express saccades (short-latency saccades, latency <100 ms) elicited when a novel stimulus is presented after a fixation point is turned off (gap-stimulus). In this paradigm the peripheral target was presented at +4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 ). Memory-guided saccades move the eyes toward the location at which a peripheral cue was previously presented for a few seconds. In this paradigm we used a central target as the fixation point, and the lateral cue was briefly presented randomly at the same eccentric target positions used in the

4 578 ANNALS NEW YORK ACADEMY OF SCIENCES gap paradigm. After a delay, during which central fixation is maintained, the central fixation target is switched off and the subject moves the eyes to where the cue had been presented. The gap and memory-guided paradigms were easily generated using the ASTIDET software by following the experimental parameters reported by Pierrot-Deseilligny. 5,6 In the gap paradigm we evaluated the peak velocity, duration, latency, and gain of each saccade, whereas in the memory-guided paradigm, we considered amplitude, latency, error, and gain of each saccadic movement. RESULTS Results are reported in TABLE 1 for the gap-paradigm parameters. Saccades were detected using a velocity threshold criterion of 30 deg/s. The mean values of duration, peak velocity, latency, and gain were comparable with those reported inthe literature. 7 In this experiment we did not consider express saccades. FIGURE 3 shows the response to the memory-guided taskfor one trial in one subject. In this task we considered saccadic error, latency, and gain of the saccadic eye movement. The results in the bottom right corner of FIGURE 3 compare well with those reported in the literature for normal subjects. FIGURE 3. Memory-guided task and results. While the subject looks at a central red dot, a second visual target is briefly (50 ms) presented laterally. After a period during which the fixation is maintained, the central dot is turned off (go signal), and the subject s eyes move to where the cue had been presented.

The system is very easy to use and calibration is fairly accurate. We are currently working on implementing real-time digital filtering of data in the ASTIDET environment. We are also implementing this software in order to interface it with a transcranial magnetic stimulator (TMS) and functional MRI. REFERENCES 1.
