Can't get F200 Eye Tracking sample to work

I've tried working with the F200 Eye Tracking sample with no luck.  Every time I try to calibrate, the entire screen turns light gray.  Then, one of the following happens:

- the light gray background disappears and I see the main dialog window again.

- the light gray background hangs around for a long time until I have to kill the app or something makes it disappear by itself

- the light gray background appears and right before it disappears I see a small red square for about 1/2 second and then it and the background disappears back to the main dialog window.

If I try to Start the app, it forces me back into the Calibration process again.  Something is clearly not working right here.  Any ideas?

You should find red square in the gray screen. Could you provide more detail info so I can find the root cause for you? Thanks!

@David.

>> You should find red square in the gray screen.

Yes and as I said I only see one out of every several trials and only for a moment before the light gray full screen view disappears back to the main dialog window.  Even it that case it takes a long time for the red square to show up, right before it and the light gray screen disappears.

>>  Could you provide more detail info so I can find the root cause for you? Thanks!

What kind of details can I give you more than what I listed above?  I'm running R6 with DCM 1.4.x.  I'm on a Windows 8.1 PC with 8GB RAM.  I'm using the stock F200 Eye Tracking sample.  I'm not sure what else I can provide that would be helpful.  Thanks.

Hi Robert,

Are you wearing glasses by any chance? Perhaps glasses with slightly tinted lenses? This can affect the quality of eye tracking.

Thanks, Bryan
