1. An eye-tracker comprising:
an imaging system configured to capture a plurality of images of a user's eyes, said images comprising information of the user's point of gaze on a display of a computer device;
a processing module for processing said images captured by the imaging system and providing processed data comprising structured information;
a module configured 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 of the eye-tracker for connecting the eye-tracker with a 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.
