Description

Johan Kleberg and co-authors introduce a free software package for eye-tracking work in a 2025 paper. Eye trackers record where people look, but raw gaze data must first be split into steady fixations and quick jumps. The choice of splitting method can shift results, most of all for children or patients whose data are noisy.

Their R package, called kollaR, runs the full pipeline from splitting to area checks and publication-ready plots. Side-by-side views help users compare splitting methods on their own data. Checks against other software gave matching results. Demo runs on both clean and noisy data show how threats to validity can be spotted early.
