# Third party eye-tracker integration

---

You can conduct your eye-tracking study with the RealEye tool using a webcam (by default) or an external hardware eye-tracker (GP3). Data will be collected with the hardware device but processed and analyzed by RealEye software. Moreover, we'll still use a webcam to keep the participant's head position in the right place and to track emotions.

First, in the "Study Setup" tab, you can choose the eye-tracking setup, so if the gaze data will be collected by:

- webcam (default),
- webcam + smartphone (as an additional webcam),
- eye-tracker that uses Open Gaze API, so i.e., GP3 hardware eye-tracker.

NOTE: using those additional options may require a proper [plan](https://www.realeye.io/pricing/).

After that step, finish creating your study as usual and send the study participation link to your panelists.

 

To run the test with the third-party eye-tracker, the tool has to be already connected to the computer (watch [here](https://www.loom.com/share/aeac644b67ab45e1881907ed0d4fea77) how to do it). The participant can calibrate before opening the participation link or during the study instructions when she/he sees the message:

The rest of the study flow remains the same.
