History

Pupil Labs was founded in 2014 around a single product, Pupil Core, an open source software suite and wearable eye tracking headset that gathered a global community of eye tracking researchers. In a few short years, the company grew from a two-person company into a market leader in wearable eye tracking. In 2019 it released Pupil Invisible, described as the first deep learning eye tracking system that felt like a normal pair of glasses. The company also built Pupil Cloud to make algorithms and infrastructure for cloud-based analysis of gaze and egocentric video data accessible to researchers and builders through an intuitive UI and an open API. It later launched Neon, an eye tracking module with a diverse family of frames, powered by the NeonNet deep learning gaze estimation pipeline. The company's main office is located in Berlin, Germany, where it fabricates locally and ships worldwide.
