The invention relates to a device and a method for performing an eye gaze mapping (M), in which at least one point of vision (B) and/or a viewing direction of at least one person (10) in relation to at least one scene recording (S) of a scene (12) viewed by the at least one person (10) is mapped onto a reference (R). At least a part of an algorithm (A1, A2, A3) for performing the eye gaze mapping (M) is thereby selected from multiple predetermined algorithms (A1, A2, A3) as a function of at least one parameter (P), and the eye gaze mapping (M) is performed on the basis of the at least one part of the algorithm (A1, A2, A3).
