Blink Detection
However, the saccade we have found could still be an artifact as a result
of a start or end of a blink. If so, we discard the saccade event and assign
the artificial saccade to a blink. To determine, if this is the case we
evaluate the pupil diameter during the saccade period. If the speed of the
pupil diameter change exceeds an internal threshold value, the saccade
is assumed artificial and part of the blink.
Fixation Detection
Finally, we create a fixation event between the newly and the previously
created blink or saccade.
Parameters
The parameters can be changed in the Adjust Event Detection dialog.
Min. duration: minimum saccade duration in [ms]. If the Auto option is
clicked, the minimum duration varies and is automatically set dependent
on the peak threshold.
Peak threshold: peak velocity threshold in [º/s]
Min. fixation duration: minimum fixation duration in [ms]. All fixations
below the threshold are rejected. The default value is 50 ms.
