title: A new technique for long-term recording of eye movements in infants.
abstract: A device for recording eye movements from infants over long time periods is described. The device consists of an infrared light-emitting diode and a phototransistor mounted in a small package which covers one eye. The eyepiece is insensitive to EEG, EKG, or EMG potentials, and avoids irritation of the infant's skin from application of electrode paste. Detection of eye movements compares favorably to conventional eye movement electrodes.
