Abstract

A method and system for tracking visual attention are disclosed. By generating at least one visual stimulus with a characteristic modulation, the characteristic modulation being applied to high spatial frequency, HSF, components of the visual stimulus and displaying the or each visual stimulus via a graphical user interface, GUI, of a display, a neural response may be induced in the user's brain. By receiving neural signals of a user from a neural signal capture device, such as an EEG device, a point of focus of the user (when the user views the visual stimulus) may be determined based on the neural signals, since the neural signals include information associated with the characteristic modulation of a visual stimulus to which the user's visual attention is directed.
