| Description | DeveLex Software introduces an innovative prototype developed for dyslexia intervention through gaze-based interactions. This web-based application, crafted in Svelte and TypeScript, leverages eye-tracking technology not just as a user interface but also as a means of monitoring and adapting to the user's performance in real-time. Integrating a WebSocket data bridge facilitates the connection with remote eye-trackers, allowing for dynamic adjustment of task difficulty based on real-time performance data. The software features interactive tasks designed to aid in dyslexia intervention, with the current prototype showcasing a paired reading task tested with the GazePoint GP 3 HD eye-tracker. This setup exemplifies the potential for eye-tracking technology to enhance educational software, particularly for dyslexia intervention, by automatically adjusting task parameters to sustain user engagement and challenge. Future developments will expand the software's task library and integrate it more into existing educational ecosystems, with the goal of offering a personalized, adaptive learning experience. This approach aims to support the academic achievement and emotional well-being of students with dyslexia by providing targeted, efficient, and engaging intervention strategies. DeveLex software represents a promising step forward in the application of gaze-based interactions for dyslexia intervention, showcasing the potential for technology to facilitate personalized learning experiences. |
