EarliPoint Investigational Device

Infants will complete eye-tracking data collection at the age of 9 months on the EarliPoint Investigational Device. Eye-tracking video cameras will safely measure the movements of the child's eyes while they watch age-appropriate video scenes of other children playing together. Parents/Caregivers will complete screening forms and questionnaires about their baby's health and development. Parents/caregivers will complete surveys about their child's development. The surveys will be emailed, to be completed when the child is approximately 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, and 24 months old. If the child shows signs of developmental delay, the child will be asked to participate in a comprehensive developmental and diagnostic assessment.
