As ever, more great info on a peripheral. I've followed your advice with the GA settings, but something I personally find very useful is to keep my POV hat switch set to snap view left and right. Because Tobii's eye movement is added on top of the hat switch movement, you can instantly add another ninety degrees to your view as and when needed, without craning your neck. This is very handy if, for example, you've gone a bit too far on the downwind leg, and you want to glance back to locate the airfield. Keep up the great work, particularly on hardware, installing, setting up etc. You've been an enormous help over the past few months.
What a great idea….I’ll try that thanks 🙏
Got my Tobii today. Set it up acc to your recommendation and took the Cessna 172 for a flight in the apls. It fantastic. lean a little to the side and look down or raise your head and look down in front. almost feels like you are there. Loving it. poor man's vr. Thanks for your fantastic videos
Your videos are consistently useful , practical and informative and personally speaking I can't find anyone who provides such useful and easy to follow help - Thank You Mark
Sir, thank you for this config update! Using the WBSim C172S Mod - turning off the eye tracking makes the Tobii5 so much easier to use in this aircraft. Grateful for all I am learning from you.
I bought the Tobii based on your first recommendation but soon stopped using it because it was just too sensitive/responsive for me and tended to induce motion sickness. But I think you are on to something with having different profiles for different aircraft types so I will give it another go with your settings. Thanks!
Just received my Tobi today, and your videos were invaluable in configuring it. Your settings work really well in the GA aircraft I tried them out in, butter smooth. Also, I would have never known about the updated driver since it's almost impossible to find on their website. (MooseP)
Tobii is the best accessory I've bought for MSFS. Works great on my 34 inch wide-screen monitor. Essential for helicopters!
Hey, that's the type of monitor I have, that was my exact question since Mark said it is ideal for monitors up to 32" My monitor is a ways away from my eyes however since I have a lot of sim-pit peripherals on my desk and such that keeps me back a ways. So my eyes are 32" away from the monitor (give or take). Will this work for me?
@@dabneyoffermein595 works for me on an HP x34 monitor sitting about 32 inches away
@@vulkan1233 ok, great. I realize it's more expensive than TRACK-IR5 but still would be a fine addition to the sim-pit i think
@@dabneyoffermein595 , remember it will work with almost ANY size monitor for head tracking….the limit relates to eye-tracking only
Great update Mark. Since your last Tobi video I purchased this and followed your vid on setting it up... Lifesaver you are. I did notice I had to slow down my head turning sensitivity in an airliner as it was jittery and had to stay stil.... So now if i want to look at say the MCDU, i pause Tobii and hit a preset key pad that brings it up for me.
Just found your channel and wow I am so glad I did! It has relieved several headaches already! Thank you for all that you do! I have a lot of videos to watch lol!
Thank you again for all you help videos . I now know what I want for fathers day lol
As always a good video Mark thanks for sharing, I enjoy my tobii very much.
Is there an update already to get it to work when using frame generation? I have heard that, because frame generation requires hardware accelerated gpu scheduling to be turned on, the tobii doesn‘t work because the tobii requires it to be turned off? Great video btw and thanks for the update! :)
Amazing thank you for sharing
Useful and informative, definitely, thank you Mark!
Top bloke Mark ! Thanks again for your efforts and support - invaluable !
Thank you 😊
Thanks for the update.
As always Mark.......A master video!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the update vid
I just wish there were a way to freeze the view without it centering like you can with Track IR.
Thank you, Mark. You're one of the best! Love your videos! Keep up the work. You should be on Asobo's payroll.
Hello, Mark! Thank you for your guides! I have a question: how would tobii response if two people sit near the monitor, would it glitch?
Good question….i am not sure.
Thanks for the update! I see you use glasses like me, any issues with the tobii? just make sure before purchasing, thanks!
I wear glasses, I have not experienced any issues with eye or face tracking.
I’ve experienced absolutely no problems wearing glasses. 👍
@@SimHangerFS thanks much!
thanks for the usual informative videos, it would be nice if you have any connection with Tobii to ask them to provide live illustration of head movements while adjusting those settings before saving (like TrackerIR 5 settings panel, you can see the impact of your actions), it would help so much and save a lot of time going back and forth trying to hit the sweet spot, many thanks again for the hard work.
sounds like the sweet-spot can be hard to find?
@@dabneyoffermein595
I have a 49" monitor, and fine tuning is really a pain for me, and when I get close to what I like and use it for some time, for some unknown reason in MSFS I loose my profile (the name is listed but can't be selected except for the default profile) then I have to start all over again, it doesn't happen every day, but when it happens I go like (oooh GOD, here we go again).
That Sir, is a great idea, I hope Tobii see your suggestions.
@@ali1966Jul you should be able to go into the folder on your C: drive and find that lost profile and then put it back to the current folder (that has the GUID of the device). Les O'Reilly has a video on YT of how to do it.
Anyone who feels like they want more control over the tracking and translation into MSFS, really dive into the deadzone options in the tobii software, with a decent deadzone and some smoothing i have no motion sickness and I am someone who cannot wear VR for 5 minutes. So much nicer using head tracking on a 4k monitor than wearing a low res (by comparison) heavy headgear.
Thought you could show us a little AIRLINER setup demo as well :')
Sorry, just didn’t have the time, will do next time 😊
@@SimHangerFS No worries. I always enjoy your content anyways. You could always film it, and add it at the end, then re upload the same video, perhaps? (if you have time and the will, of course O;-)!)
Long time watcher first time caller. What's your thoughts on looking closely at the Garmin systems. Like for example keying in a way point or turning a dial? I would like to see how that looks/works.
Thanks!
Thank you for your generous support of the channel. Amazing! 🎉
Currently I use my old Webcam with OpenTrack and AITrack for Head Tracking. It works well enough. Something less laggy and a bit more accurate would be nice for X-Plane 12 and MSFS 2020.
Unfortunately, the Tobii Eye Tracker is supposed to be mounted on the Bottom of the Monitor. As I have the Honeycomb Alpha XPC in front of it, plus the Saitek / Logitech Multipanel and Radio Panel stacked on top of the Yoke, I am still looking for something else. Head TrackIR 5 is IMO severely overpriced, considering the quite old Hardware Specs (it is nearly 11 years old).
Tobii Eye Tracker is also very pricey, considering its overall specs. Also, wearing some Hat on top of my Headphones - especially during the warmer time of the year - seems weird.
Hopefully there will some better tech soon(TM).
Still a very good Video with a lof of Details and also to keep up on things. Keep up the great work! :)
#StaySafeStayHealthyEveryone
This sets out exactly my problem with Tobii - would be thrilled if it could be updated so the sensor/tracker unit itself can be mounted on top of the monitor rather than on the bottom.
Will continue to dream on........
Regards, A
all ok, but why during my flight my initial camera point is slowly going up during the descent of the 737, having to press the reset button continuously to return it to its initial state?
Thank you, a great video as always.
A question on Windows 11 compatibility. Some users are reporting problems. This is acknowledged on Tobii site since Oct 22 indicating that they are investigating the issue. But no report since then. Does anyone know if the problem is fixed ? Otherwise, I think that it works only once and then a new windows cession is needed for Tobbi Eye Tracker 5 to be used again.
Haven’t experienced this, but will test it out and come back to you if problem persists
Cheers Mark 👍🙏🏻👨✈️✈️
Hey Mark, how sensitive to light is the Tobii? I discontinued using my trackIR 5 because it was too sensitive to light (like sunlught in the background) and I didn't want to darkened the room each time. Curious about the Tobii. Cheers!
It is not immune to very bright light, but nowhere near as sensitive as my TrackIR was.
Hi, thanks for sharing your tobi settings. I got the tobi eye tracker 5 last week and its realy good. I had trackir but camera broke so i decioded to get tobi. Just one thing i dont like is you cant pause the camera to control switches etc, this is really dissapointing as its so difficult to hold still enough to manipulate knobs and switches. Yes you can stop camera but the view goes to default cockpit view and thats no good. Any thoughts on this? i wonder is there a way around this problem?
Thanks for you great videoes.
Have any question, when you turn your head to look at the side of the aircraft you will not be looking at the screen anymore does it still give you enough visual on the screen as you turn your head? thank you in advance
The eyetracker is a gamechager imho, for me it's tons better than TrackIR, for one I don't have to wear a soppy hat with a wire hanging off it.
It's perfect but I can't believe there is no option to pause it without centering. It is so frustrating that something so obvious to me wasn't included. Makes me jump through hoops with facetracknoir which works sometimes.
I am considering this; does it work for/in other sims like IL2 Sturmovik; or ATS; ETS2; DCs World?
Details on the Tobii website. I can’t remember all the details now.
It works in ATS and, I assume ETS2.
@@tonymuscarella2446 Thanks eh!
How are you finding the GNS 530, any review incoming?
GNS 530…..next week or week after hopefully. Awaiting clarification on impact of AAU1.
I use a second monitor off to the right side where I run apps like Little Navmap, Navigraph Charts, Windy, etc. Do I have to disable Tobii in order to turn my head to look to the right about 45 Degrees to the second screen?
If you turn your head your view changes. I do the same with a monitor to my left. There is a configuration option to assign a button or key to enable or disable. When disabled your Tobii is off and it centres your view.
Mines stopped working for some reason. Great when it does though!
I was having the same issue, it was due to having other headtracking software installed, after de-installing the other software the problems went away.
Make sure it is enabled in camera settings.
Does the tobii eyetracker 4c work on msfs2020
Hello. Sir Can you tell how to stop tobii for a moment on mfs2020?
Yes you can set a key bind in MSFS. Head tracking.
+1
Hello. Not for Xbox yet? or never? Cheers
Sorry no, not on Xbox …yet.
Is a 34" Ultrawide 1440p ok for this head-tracking device? I have 4 monitors total but only use the Alienware 34 ultrawide for MSFS2020.
Yes no problem. The monitor limitation doesn’t apply to head-tracking, only eye tracking.
@@SimHangerFS oh, i had no idea. i heard one simmer on YT say that track-IR is better for DCS because of the head-tracking capability so i guess that confused me a bit.
@@SimHangerFS so what does the eye-tracking actually do, does it enlarge the exact area of the screen you are looking at, in other words, it's like a magnifying glass?
Thanks for you vidéo but honestly for the 239€ I paid on Amazon this kind of tuto would have to be done by the manufacturer like many others like NLR are doing. It is unbelievable that so few information is given to customers about installing and trimming the product. Use of different drivers from Tobii experience or the Tobii site is confusing almost because they stay both in the installed sw win list Additionally and at this day with last MSFS update I was unable making the device working with MSFS despite many hours of experiments. Even crashing the sim many times. Also very much deceived by the few numbers of games that accept the device compared with my old DIY head tracking IR I’ve done for 15€ all inclusive (I admit I need to wear a cap to use it however…). Eye tracking limitation in size of display and almost range to the eyes is also an issue….So the return to Amazon is in progress….
Are all the instruments in SIM the same as real plane
Depends on the aircraft/developer.
I don't know why but mine doesn't work in MSFS 2020 at all. It works in other games but it does nothing in MSFS 2020. Anyone found a fix for this? (edit: I have a brand new Tobii eye tracker 5)
guys I fixed it!! I still had openTrack installed.
is there a way to toggle the eye tracker on/off during the game?
Yes, set up a shortcut key as shown in my initial review video.
msfs2020 does not recognize the Tobii 5. in other games yes?
Anyone have any idea?
Followed all instructions from Mark, updated win11 and latest version of Tobii drivers.
But unfortunately.
Make sure you have trackIR enabled in MSFS
@@SimHangerFS Thanks for your quick reply, I can't find this option in the menu.
Or is it somewhere else?
@@ronkievit2097 I am not sure, but think it is accessible via the top toolbar & camera. (Not at my PC at the moment).
@@SimHangerFS thanks, found it, but I can't activate it. I also don't see the Tobii in the control option menu
@@SimHangerFS Tobii works great in other sims like DSC
I found a post on the MSFS forum where someone claimed that enabling Frame Generation on a RTX4000 disabled the Tobii EyeTracker. I’m currently rebuilding my rig and can’t test it myself. Has one else had any issues.
I’ll check. Not aware of an issue
Thanks. The claim was that HAGS needs to be enabled for FG but needs to be off for the Tobii
@@chaseydog7956 not true, I’m running the Tobii with HAGS on all the time.
@@SimHangerFS good to know. Thanks for the confirmation
does work with glasses?
Yes, I wear glasses 👍
Hello…Can anyone tell me if Tobii eye tracker can be used in chase plane camera view. I know I should be piloting from the inside but I have gotten used to chase plane mode.Thx
It has very limited use in drone mode, mainly left/right, but no zoom etc. not really designed for use outside the cockpit.
@@SimHangerFS thx for the reply
I had one a few months back but it was almost too responsive ... I didn't think about turning the eye tracking off ... I've seen a few people do that with good results and thinking of buying again!!! Does the Tobi impact on the FPS at all???
Nominal impact, as does moving your camera view. In my experience less hassle than TrackIR
How does this work MSFS using three monitors?
I haven’t tried it, best to check on their forum or discord….I can’t see why not though.
