Abstract
In some research tasks, it is necessary to use real-time gaze data to drive the presentation of visual stimuli. Two types of data are available from the EyeLink Host PC during recording—samples and events. This chapter will give an overview of the Pylink commands for accessing sample and event data. Two complete PsychoPy example scripts are presented to illustrate how to use sample and event data in real experimental tasks.
