Aim Trainer Test

This test measures your hand-eye coordination. Targets appear at random positions in the test area.

Hit each target as fast as you can. The test ends after 30 targets. The first hit just starts the clock, so it is not timed.

What the aim trainer measures

This test measures visuomotor coordination: the time it takes to process a target's position visually and guide your hand to that point. It is a rapid version of the kind of pointing task used to study motor control.

The behaviour is modelled by Fitts's law: the smaller and more distant the target, the longer the movement takes. The same skill drives FPS games, surgery and throwing darts.

Questions

What does this test measure?

Hand-eye coordination and visuomotor reflex: how quickly you can move to and hit a target you just saw appear.

What is an average score?

About 600 milliseconds per target. Under 500ms is fast, over 700ms is on the slow side.

Does practice help?

Yes, repeated practice can sharpen the reflex. FPS gamers usually score better.
