1. A method comprising:
- receiving data representing a location where an individual'"'"'s eye or eyes are looking before, during, or after the individual performs a task involving movement of the individual relative to a physical environment;
identifying a visual cue of where the individual should be looking during the task, at a point that is located relative to an object in the physical environment and that is associated with a segment of movement of the individual and a biomechanical phase of another individual or an object in the physical environment, the visual cue being identified based on historical or statistical analysis of other individuals'"'"' performance of the task and being unknown to the individual during the individual'"'"'s performance of the task;
generating a score of a location where the individual'"'"'s eye or eyes are looking relative to the location of the visual cue during the segment of movement, based on analysis of the received data relative to the visual cue;
informing the individual of the location of the visual cue to inform the individual where he or she should be looking during the task;
receiving data representing a location where the individual'"'"'s eye or eyes are looking before, during, or after the individual performs second or subsequent iterations of the task with knowledge of the location of the visual cue; and
updating the score or generating a new score based on locations where the individual'"'"'s eye or eyes are looking relative to the location of the visual cue during segments of movement involved in the second or subsequent iterations of the task.

Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for evaluating human eye tracking. One method includes receiving data representing the location of and/or information tracked by an individual'"'"'s eye or eyes before, during, or after the individual performs a task; identifying a temporal phase or a biomechanical phase of the task performed by the individual; identifying a visual cue in the identified temporal phase or biomechanical phase; and scoring the tracking of the individual'"'"'s eye or eyes by comparing the data to the visual cue.

17. A system comprising:
-
a data storage device storing instructions for evaluating human eye movement; a processor configured to execute the instructions to perform a method including; receiving data representing a location where an individual'"'"'s eye or eyes are looking before, during, or after the individual performs a task involving movement of the individual relative to a physical environment; identifying a visual cue of where the individual should be looking during the task, at a point that is located relative to an object in the physical environment and that is associated with a segment of movement of the individual and a biomechanical phase of another individual or an object in the physical environment, the visual cue being identified based on historical or statistical analysis of other individuals'"'"' performance of the task and being unknown to the individual during the individual'"'"'s performance of the task; generating a score of a location where the individual'"'"'s eye or eyes are looking relative to the location of the visual cue during the segment of movement, based on analysis of the received data relative to the visual cue; informing the individual of the location of the visual cue to inform the individual where he or she should be looking during the tas; receiving data representing a location where the individual'"'"'s eye or eyes are looking before, during, or after the individual performs second or subsequent iterations of the task with knowledge of the location of the visual cue; and updating the score or generating a new score based on locations where the individual'"'"'s eye or eyes are looking relative to the location of the visual cue during segments of movement involved in the second or subsequent iterations of the task. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)

28. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method comprising:
-
receiving data representing a location where an individual'"'"'s eye or eyes are looking before, during, or after the individual performs a task involving movement of the individual relative to a physical environment; identifying a visual cue of where the individual should be looking during the task, at a point that is located relative to an object in the physical environment and that is associated with a segment of movement of the individual and a biomechanical phase of another individual or an object in the physical environment, the visual cue being identified based on historical or statistical analysis of other individuals'"'"' performance of the task and being unknown to the individual during the individual'"'"'s performance of the task; generating a score of a location where the individual'"'"'s eye or eyes are looking relative to the location of the visual cue during the segment of movement, based on analysis of the received data relative to the visual cue; informing the individual of the location of the visual cue to inform the individual where he or she should be looking during the task; receiving data representing a location where the individual'"'"'s eye or eyes are looking before, during, or after the individual performs second or subsequent iterations of the task with knowledge of the location of the visual cue; and updating the score or generating a new score based on locations where the individual'"'"'s eye or eyes are looking relative to the location of the visual cue during segments of movement involved in the second or subsequent iterations of the task.
