ClearGazeTest | Hand-Eye Reflex Coordination Program

The Gap In Pilot Training

Every pilot trains the aircraft.
Almost none train the nervous system.

Stick-and-rudder training, procedure checklists, and simulator hours are refined to the minute. But the twenty-millisecond neurological delay between what the eye sees and what the hand does — the difference between first-look / first-shot and being shot at — is left entirely to the assumption of “the pilot is rested and ready.” That assumption is the ceiling.

The invisible 20 ms

Modern combat aviation is a millisecond fight. A fighter pilot with 20 ms slower saccadic latency sees threats later, acquires targets later, and reacts later — across every sortie, every day, across the whole career.

Fatigue + medication, unmeasured

Sleep debt, flight-approved medications, and cumulative G-stress degrade the reflex loop by measurable amounts. Current flight physicals and self-report miss all of it.

No objective feedback loop

Pilots cannot improve what they cannot measure. Without a high-frequency, circuit-resolved readout of the eye-hand reflex, there is no way to target training at the neurology actually limiting performance.

How We Measure It

Twelve neurological biomarkers. Five minutes.

ClearGazeTest captures binocular eye movement at 220+ Hz on the Varjo XR-4 VR variant and 500 Hz on the dedicated infrared tablet variant, then extracts twelve circuit-resolved biomarkers — saccadic latency, peak saccadic velocity, smooth pursuit gain, anti-saccade inhibition, vergence accuracy, VOR gain, pupil light reflex dynamics, and more.

Each biomarker maps to a distinct neural pathway. Together, they resolve not whether a pilot is ready, but which circuit in the eye-hand reflex loop is the rate limit. That is what unlocks targeted training.

The readout is involuntary physiology. It cannot be gamed by a fatigued pilot who wants to fly, an over-medicated pilot who wants to keep their ticket, or a stoic warfighter who wants to stay in the mission.

Three Cockpits. One Platform.

From fifth-gen fighter to vintage warbird.
The neurology is the same.

Whether you are strapping into an F-35, an Airbus, or a Glamorous Glen, the limiting factor is the circuit between your eye and your hand. The Hand-Eye Reflex Coordination Program is packaged for each environment.

Twelve Biomarkers — Circuit-Resolved

The neurology of the eye-hand reflex,
quantified.

Every pilot gets twelve numbers. Each number isolates a specific neural pathway. Together, they explain exactly where — and why — the eye-hand reflex is slow or miscalibrated.

Saccadic Latency

Frontal eye field → superior colliculus → brainstem

Peak Saccadic Velocity

Brainstem saccadic generators; metabolic / fatigue state

Saccadic Accuracy

Cerebellum — vermis / fastigial calibration

Smooth Pursuit Gain

Frontal + parietal + cerebellum + MT/MST

Fixation Stability

Brainstem fixation generators — neurodegenerative signal

Vergence Near-Point

Oculomotor nucleus + supranuclear control

VOR Gain

Vestibular nuclei + cerebellar flocculus

Pupil Light Reflex

Midbrain EW nucleus + sympathetic arc; autonomic + CNS drugs

Anti-Saccade Inhibition

Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex — executive inhibition

Contrast Sensitivity

Primary visual cortex + retina — night vision readiness

Optokinetic Response

Brainstem + cerebellum — vestibulo-visual integrity

Inter-Saccadic Interval

Brainstem reset dynamics — volitional cadence

Telemetry — What Every Pilot Sees

After every session,
four numbers that matter.

The pilot, the flight surgeon, and the squadron commander see the same dashboard. No jargon. Just the four numbers that decide whether this crewmember is mission-ready today.

Runs on Varjo XR-4 and ruggedized tablet. Deployable flight-line to carrier deck to corporate hangar.

Data-Driven Results

Longitudinal database per pilot, per squadron. Training decisions stop being guesses.

Mission-Ready Warfighter

Objective readiness readout before wheels-up. Objective return-to-flight after blast or G-LOC.

Technology Stack

State of the art.
Already flying.

We do not ask the Department of Defense to fund a new supply chain. We build on the VR/XR platform the DoD and its allies already operate.

The VR-headset variant of the Hand-Eye Reflex Coordination Program is built on Varjo XR-4 — human-eye resolution stereoscopic display, integrated binocular eye tracking at ≥220 Hz, sub-degree gaze accuracy, and mixed-reality pass-through. 220+ Hz is sufficient to resolve every saccade, every pupil dynamic, and every anti-saccade inhibition latency the platform cares about.

The same headset the U.S. Army selected for RVCT forward-deployable training. The same headset Lockheed Martin pairs with Prepar3D for pilot training. The same headset Boeing chose for Starliner astronaut training. The same headset the Finnish Air Force integrates with Bohemia Interactive VBS4 for Live-Virtual-Constructive exercises. FlightSafety International operates it for high-security commercial pilot training. Dassault Aviation flies it. MVRsimulation pairs it with eye-tracking-enabled fighter pilot simulators. Aechelon pipes geo-specific battlespace into it.

For the squadron, the flight line, the aeromedical clinic, and the training pipeline, the hardware is TRL 9 — already in operational use. We add the only layer the stack is missing: objective neurological readiness measurement, built into the same five minutes the pilot is already spending in the headset.
