About the tracking test
Tracking means keeping your aim on a target that is moving, instead of clicking it once. In this test a ball wanders around the pad for 30 seconds. It holds one heading and speed for a moment, then swings to a new one, so you cannot learn its path. It turns away before it reaches an edge, so it never bounces and never leaves the pad.
Click the pad to start, then move the cursor onto the ball and keep it there. You do not need to click again. While the centre of your cursor is on the ball, short ticks play over and over and the ball turns green. When you lose the ball the ticks stop, so you can tell at once.
Your score is the share of the 30 seconds that the cursor was on the ball, from 0 to 100 percent. The result also shows your longest unbroken streak on the ball. Time is counted from the real clock, so the score does not depend on how fast your screen refreshes.
How to improve
- Look at the ball, not at your cursor. Your hand follows your eyes.
- Move smoothly with your arm and wrist instead of correcting in small jerks.
- Try to anticipate where the ball is heading instead of chasing where it just was.
- Keep the same mouse and sensitivity between sessions so you can see real progress.
