Sumario:In the present work, the development of an eye tracking device has been carried out in order to analyze the eye movements precisely. This is expected to provide relevant information in the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) as the eye movements can be altered in such patients as they are controlled by the brain. Finally, the developed eye tracking system, including hardware and software, has been tested on six healthy participants and the results have been processed and analyzed. It will also be soon tested on patients with AD.
