Read that way, quiet eye duration may be no more than another way of saying that someone has been shooting for years. The most interesting detail is where the difference sits: in the experts the fixation starts earlier rather than ending later, and it takes up almost a third of the aiming time against less than a fifth, with the same number of seconds per arrow. What 2025 brought is instrumentation, not answers: two papers show the quiet eye can be measured with electro-oculography instead of an eye tracker, but neither puts duration next to the score of the arrow.claim:quiet-eye-precisione:revision:2026-10-03:2Sat, 03 Oct 2026 08:00:00 GMT https://matteocampagna.com/en/registry/mind/quiet-eye-accuracy#storiaThe year brings measurement work rather than answers, so the status does not change. A Turkish group measures the quiet eye with electro-oculography instead of an eye tracker and, in eighteen young archers shooting between 30 and 50 m, finds durations between 0.6 and 0.8 seconds. A second paper from the same group validates the method: a neural network detects the quiet eye with an accuracy of around 93 to 95% and, given a clean signal, places its start and end to within a few milliseconds. That is good practical news, since electro-oculography costs far less than an eye tracker, but neither paper puts duration next to the score of the arrow.claim:quiet-eye-precisione:history_entry:2026-09-21:2025Mon, 21 Sep 2026 08:00:00 GMT https://matteocampagna.com/en/registry/mind/quiet-eye-accuracyclaim:quiet-eye-precisione:new_claim:2026-08-28:riportatoFri, 28 Aug 2026 08:00:00 GMT
