Claim 11:
12. A method for communication between an eye-tracker and a computer device, wherein the eye-tracker comprises an imaging system configured to capture images of a user's eyes, said images comprising information of the user's point of gaze on a display of the computer device; a processing module for processing the images captured by the imaging system and providing processed data comprising structured information; a module for converting the processed data comprising structured information into data written in a common language understandable by different operating systems, said data comprising serialized structured information, wherein serialized structured information comprises the processed data in a format understandable by said different operating systems; and a connection module coupled to an input/output port for connecting the eye-tracker with the computer device, wherein the connection module is a USB module coupled to a USB input/output port for connecting the eye-tracker with a computer device through a USB interface, wherein the connection module is designed to implement two different configurations, the selection of one of the two different configurations being determined by the operating system of the computer device, wherein one of the two different configurations is selected when the operating system of the computer device is IPadOS and the other one of the two different configurations is selected when the operating system of the computer device is an operating system different from IPadOS; the method including the following steps:
reading at a USB host of the computer device configuration information of the USB module, said configuration information comprising information of at least one configuration, said at least one configuration implementing a local area network (LAN) over USB interface, and
starting a communication following the USB protocol between said USB host and said USB module.
