Med den senaste framväxten av virtuell verklighet (VR) finns ett växande behov av att utforska möjligheterna med VR-ögonspårning, särskilt inom användbarhetstestning. I detta arbete har ögonspårning i VR använts i användbarhetstestning av ett flygunderhållningssystem. Genom att visualisera användarens blick kan värdefulla insikter i användarbeteende och uppmärksamhet avslöjas i den virtuella världWith the recent rise of virtual reality (VR), there is need to explore in the opportunities of VR eye tracking, particularly in UX research and usability testing. This thesis aims to investigate how eye tracking in VR can be used in usability testing of inflight entertainment (IFE) systems and identify its advantages and disadvantages. The study's process was executed iteratively with a devel
