FYI, the anode and cathode positions are switched in the video at 1:51. Sorry about that! Be sure to check the orientation using this diagram: github.com/JEOresearch/EyeTracker/blob/camera_tracker/correction.png

Thank you! I have a feeling that this will become a series of fun DIY projects. Stay tuned!

Is there any risk of eye injury?

[@jeoresearch]

Because of the low amperage, the risk is extremely low. Most commercial eye trackers use similar LEDs, many of which are more powerful than these.
