At least that's how I read "*The Tobii EyeX is specifically made and tuned for PC gaming experiences. If you would like to purchase the Tobii EyeX for research purposes, please contact Tobii Pro." at https://tobiigaming.com/product/tobii-eyex/ It might be worth inquiring with Tobii directly about that. Hope this helps.

If the products are compatible with the same SDK Inquisit uses / is compiled against, then they should work with the Inquisit plugin as well. Since I don't know the details of the "research" version of the EyeX, I can't say with 100% certainty that it will work. What did the Tobii folks say? (I suspect you contacted them.)
