A separate YouTube video also shows off the use of eye-tracking, which is compatible with Tobii Gaming’s signature equipment. Game experience researcher at Tobii, Anders Frank, explains how the technology works to complement other Shadow of the Tomb Raider Xbox One X enhancements. There are two modes in-game. The first, known as “Awareness,” tracks your eye movement and highlights important things that are worth knowing. The second, “Aim at Gaze,” allows players to aim at enemies with their eyes to perfect headshots.
