Since every user of Skyle has different eyes, is positioned differently in front of Skyle and sits in a different environment, it is important that Skyle is calibrated to achieve the optimal user experience.
A calibration consists of a certain amount of predefined points on the screen that the user must look at when the calibration pointer is displayed. Skyle offers a one, two, five and nine point calibration where the nine point calibration is the most accurate and the one point calibration the least accurate.
Feel free to try out every single one of the calibrations to find the one you are most comfortable with.
