It may be possible, or at least there is a Python tool that parses EyeLink EDF files:
This still requires the EyeLink SDK though, which also includes the edf2asc
utility, so I'm not sure there would be any real gain. What is the main issue that you're running into right now?
This is limiting to Windows platform
No, it's not! You can install edf2asc
also on Linux (which is what I mainly use) or Mac OS.
@smathot apologizes for the delayed response, thanks for pointing the Linux alternative! Overall, my goal is to be able to work on eyelink data (already generated) with minimal effort and reduced dependencies on the proprietary software.
As of now, the tool parse
edf
files only using theedf2asc.exe
app. This is limiting to Windows platform and extra EyeLink software. Is it possible to parseedf
files with open source and cross-platform tools?https://github.com/smathot/python-eyelinkparser/blob/78cb1e19c149906deebd8f59dd548173fab48790/eyelinkparser/_eyelinkparser.py#L96-L99
