1 - 24 . (canceled)

25 . A computer-implemented method comprising:

receiving data representing a location where an individual's eye or eyes are looking before, during, or after the individual performs a task involving movement of the individual relative to a physical environment;

identifying a visual cue of where the individual should be looking during the task, at a point in the physical environment that is associated with the individual or an object during a segment of movement, the visual cue being identified based on performance of the task by one or more other individuals;

generating a score of a location where the individual's eye or eyes are looking relative to the location of the visual cue during the segment of movement, based on analysis of the received data relative to the visual cue; and

generating an electronic display for informing the individual of the location of the visual cue and recommending tasks for the individual to perform based on the location of the visual cue.

26 . The method of claim 25 , further comprising:

receiving data representing a location where the individual's eye or eyes are looking before, during, or after the individual performs second or subsequent iterations of the task; and

updating the score or generating a new score based on locations where the individual's eye or eyes are looking relative to the location of the visual cue during segments of movement involved in the second or subsequent iterations of the task.

27 . The method of claim 25 , wherein the data is one or more of: image data of the individual's eye or eyes, coordinate data of the location of the individual's eye or eyes, and coordinate data of a location on which the individual's eye or eyes were looking; and

wherein the data is received, either locally or over a network, from a wearable eye tracker configured to obtain the data by imaging the individual's eye or eyes.

28 . The method of claim 25 , further comprising:

determining a target range associated with the visual cue, the target range defining a viewing area around the visual cue; and

generating a score of the location where the individual's eye or eyes are looking by scoring where the individual's eye or eyes are looking relative to the determined target range.

29 . The method of claim 25 , further comprising:

identifying movement of the identified visual cue, the identified movement including a set of coordinates of the visual cue at each of a plurality of points in time; and

determining a target range associated with each of the sets of coordinates of the visual cue.

30 . The method of claim 25 , wherein generating an electronic display for recommending tasks for the individual to perform based on the location of the visual cue, includes recommending one or more training drills to the individual based on the score.

31 . The method of claim 25 , wherein generating the score of the location where the individual's eye or eyes are looking includes one or more of:

generating a target score, generating a cognitive load score, and calculating a stress indicator score.

32 . The method of claim 31 , wherein generating the score includes generating the target score, and wherein the target score is generated based on a bull's-eye arrangement centered around the visual cue.

33 . The method of claim 31 , wherein generating the score includes generating the cognitive load score, and wherein the cognitive load score is generated based on a number of eye shift movements detected within an interval of time.

34 . The method of claim 31 , wherein generating the score includes generating the stress indicator score, and wherein the stress indicator score is calculated as the sum of the target score and the cognitive load score.

35 . The method of claim 25 , further comprising calculating a potential score that is predictive of the individual's performance in the task, as a function of one or more parameters identified as predictive of future performance in the task.

36 . The method of claim 25 , further comprising:

calculating a score for each of the one or more parameters predictive of future performance in the task;

determining a weight for each of the one or more parameters; and

calculating a total potential score based on the determined weights and the calculated scores.

37 . A system comprising:

a data storage device storing instructions for evaluating human eye movement;

a processor configured to execute the instructions to perform a method including:

receiving data representing a location where an individual's eye or eyes are looking before, during, or after the individual performs a task involving movement of the individual relative to a physical environment;

identifying a visual cue of where the individual should be looking during the task, at a point in the physical environment that is associated with the individual or an object during a segment of movement, the visual cue being identified based on performance of the task by one or more other individuals;

generating a score of a location where the individual's eye or eyes are looking relative to the location of the visual cue during the segment of movement, based on analysis of the received data relative to the visual cue; and

generating an electronic display for informing the individual of the location of the visual cue and recommending tasks for the individual to perform based on the location of the visual cue.

38 . The system of claim 37 , wherein the processor is further configured for:

receiving data representing a location where the individual's eye or eyes are looking before, during, or after the individual performs second or subsequent iterations of the task; and

updating the score or generating a new score based on locations where the individual's eye or eyes are looking relative to the location of the visual cue during segments of movement involved in the second or subsequent iterations of the task

39 . The system of claim 37 , wherein the data is one or more of: image data of the individual's eye or eyes, coordinate data of the location of the individual's eye or eyes, and coordinate data of a location on which the individual's eye or eyes were looking; and

wherein the data is received, either locally or over a network, from a wearable eye tracker configured to obtain the data by imaging the individual's eye or eyes.

40 . The system of claim 37 , wherein the processor is further configured for:

determining a target range associated with the visual cue, the target range defining a viewing area around the visual cue; and

generating a score of the location where the individual's eye or eyes are looking by scoring where the individual's eye or eyes are looking relative to the determined target range.

41 . The system of claim 37 , wherein the processor is further configured for:

identifying movement of the identified visual cue, the identified movement including a set of coordinates of the visual cue at each of a plurality of points in time; and

determining a target range associated with each of the sets of coordinates of the visual cue.

42 . The system of claim 37 , wherein generating an electronic display for recommending tasks for the individual to perform based on the location of the visual cue, includes recommending one or more training drills to the individual based on the score.

43 . The system of claim 37 , wherein generating the score of the location where the individual's eye or eyes are looking includes one or more of:

generating a target score, generating a cognitive load score, and calculating a stress indicator score.

44 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method comprising:

receiving data representing a location where an individual's eye or eyes are looking before, during, or after the individual performs a task involving movement of the individual relative to a physical environment;

identifying a visual cue of where the individual should be looking during the task, at a point in the physical environment that is associated with the individual or an object during a segment of movement, the visual cue being identified based on performance of the task by one or more other individuals; and
