Introducing Evo
We are delighted to introduce Evo, a new intelligent eye tracker created by Smartbox.
Powerful machine learning algorithms have been trained on real-world scenarios to deliver fast, accurate, and responsive performance. Evo works seamlessly for users who wear glasses, have a range of head positions, and use the tracker in a variety of settings and lighting conditions.
Evo joins Smartbox's portfolio of eye trackers and has been developed to make AAC more accessible to everyone.
Available with Grid Pad 13 and Grid Pad 16.
Building on new experience

Earlier this year, Smartbox welcomed GazeFirst, a German company with specialist expertise in eye gaze technology, into the Smartbox family.
Bringing GazeFirst into their R&D team has helped accelerate the creation of Evo for Grid Pad 13 and Grid Pad 16, with our modular enclosure.
Together, they are committed to delivering the best possible experience for people who rely on eye tracking.

Intelligent eye tracking
Smartbox's advanced algorithms are designed to meet the unique needs of AAC users, and deliver faster and more accurate eye tracking.

On-device processing
All processing happens directly on Evo, rather than on your Grid Pad. A dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) delivers faster, more responsive performance.

Designed for Grid Pad
Evo has been developed specifically with Grid Pad 13, Grid Pad 16 and Grid software in mind, delivering a seamless, intuitive experience.
