It's a good start, but nowhere near as accurate in comparison to the infrared trackers, though? What would it take to get it to that level?


Depends on which aspect you mean. E.g. a proper infrared tracker with high framerate, something like >120Hz, can be used to detect microsaccdes. I don't know much about webcam tech, but I doubt it can reach those framerates and at the same time low noise needed to distinguish those microsaccades. Then again, the research of the meaning of those and whether they're predictive or not isn't conclusive afaik so I wouldn't know any use for VR anyway.
