Tobii X2-60 EPU VESA Mount

thingiverse

The Tobii X2-60 (http://www.tobii.com/) is a great piece of equipment used for eye tracking in research environments. The only problem is that the EPU (External Processing Unit), which is basically a little computer, has to sit on a desk in front of the subject. If you have subjects with hands that like to push buttons and grab things then this is a problem. Working with children, we knew there had to be a better solution. A mounting bracket that attached to the back of a monitor using standard VESA mount hardware would be ideal. Tobii doesn't offer such a mounting bracket, so we made one. I'm pretty pleased with the simple design. It's not fancy, but it works. If you aren't constantly moving your monitor around, I don't think you'll run into trouble with the EPU falling out. That said, It's probably a good idea to remove the EPU from the bracket if you are moving the monitor. Also included is an offset version of the bracket (X260HolderArmMountHolder/Bracket). These two fit together and must be glued or otherwise joined permanently. The offset might be a bit much, so I've included the source file in case someone wants to change that. There's also a small spacing bracket to act as a shim in order to keep the arm mount parallel to the monitor.
