Eye tracking device is a tool created to help measure eye and head movements. The first devices for tracking eye movement took two main forms: those that relied on a mechanical connection between participant and recording instrument, and those in which light or some other form of electromagnetic energy was directed at the participant's eyes and its reflection measured and recorded.
Eye movement in music reading is an extremely complex phenomenon that involves a number of unresolved issues in psychology, and which requires intricate experimental conditions to produce meaningful data. Despite some 30 studies in this area over the past 70 years, little is known about the underlying patterns of eye movement in music reading.
Eye movement first 2 seconds (Yarbus, 1967) During the 1960s, technical development permitted the continuous registration of eye movement during reading, [19] in picture viewing, [20] and later, in visual problem solving, [21] and when headset-cameras became available, also during driving. [22]
The specific timing pattern of microsaccades in humans changes during reading based on the structure of the word being read. [10] [11] Experiments in neurophysiology from different laboratories showed that fixational eye movements, particularly microsaccades, strongly modulate the activity of neurons in the visual areas of the macaque brain.
The study of eye movements in reading allowed researchers to map out the perceptual span (moving window paradigm [23] [24]), the nature of the extrafoveal information extracted during a fixation, for instance orthographic and phonological information (boundary paradigm) [25] [26] [27] or the relative influence of attention versus visual acuity ...

Yarbus eye tracker from the 1960s. In the 1800s, studies of eye movement were made using direct observations. For example, Louis Émile Javal observed in 1879 that reading does not involve a smooth sweeping of the eyes along the text, as previously assumed, but a series of short stops (called fixations) and quick saccades.
