Eye trackers (devices for measuring eye movement) allow researchers to monitor what study participant is looking at.

Oculography is a noninvasive method that can be used in the study of underlying mechanisms of human cognition: perception of images, reading, learning, communication, decision making, deception detection, etc. in healthy participants and in clinical populations (e.g. patients with brain lesions, individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders).

Eye tracking can be easily used in conjunction with other brain activity monitoring systems such as EEG and fNIRS.
