An eye tracking apparatus is operable in both first and second illumination environments where the second illumination is associated with a higher illumination environment than the first illumination. The apparatus includes an image capturer configured to capture an image of a user, an image processor configured to detect an eyepoint of the user in the captured image, and an optical source configured to emit infrared light to the user in a first illumination mode. The image capturer includes a dual bandpass filter configured to allow infrared light and visible light to pass.
