What OGAMA is

OGAMA is Windows software for recording and analyzing eye-tracking and mouse-tracking data in slideshow experiments. It can record directly with Tobii, alea, and SMI systems, or with the open-source ITU Gazetracker solution. Gazetracker can use infrared-ready webcams or a modified PlayStationEye camera. OGAMA can also import ASCII recordings from eye-tracking and presentation software or hardware, so existing recordings can be brought into its workflow. Its tools include database-driven preprocessing and filtering, attention maps, areas of interest, saliency calculations, Levenshtein distances, and replay with AVI recording. Output can be used directly with statistical software packages. OGAMA is free, open-source software written in C#.NET, and the project says users can adapt its code. One important limitation is support: the maintainer announced in May 2016 that they had stopped handling support and feature requests because they no longer had time.

Who it suits

OGAMA suits researchers running slideshow experiments who need to collect or import gaze and mouse data and analyze it with visualizations or statistical software. It may also suit users who can work with open-source code and Windows software.
