Today was the first day of MVRL Boot Camp. It mainly consisted of lecturing and note taking regarding the human eye. We discussed its structure, the functions of each part, vision problems and their solutions, lenses, and much more. Usually note taking is a tedious task, but the content was so interesting that it mostly flew by. I learned some tricks to find your dominant eye and see how glasses work, which caught my attention. After our lunch break, we were exposed to the mobile eye-trackers. The software is pretty easy to use and user friendly. My group member, Nick and I created our first eye-tracker videos as partners and composed them just prior to leaving. I'm looking forward to putting these to scientific use!
