Doctoral students examine vision defects associated with 3D image perception
3D technology reaches a wide audience. TVs and computer monitors allow the presentation of three-dimensional image. In cinemas more and more often presented are productions, which should be viewed in special glasses. Meanwhile, a significant number of people have trouble seeing the picture prepared in this technology, complain of headache and declares malaise.
Łukasz Kosikowski from Gdańsk University of Technology examines how
often vision defects cause such ailments occur. The researcher received a
scholarship in the third edition of InnoDoktorant programme.
The doctoral student decided to use the visual tracking system to
examine certain vision defects, especially strabismus and amblyopia,
associated with the perception of 3D image. As he explained, he uses no-contact technology to track eye fixation
point. It is a device that allows to determine with considerable
precision, at which place on the computer screen the viewer is looking.
"This
is a very current topic and the results of the study can be valuable
for people who actually have this type of problem. In a study of 3D
perception I take viewing angle into account. It is very important as in
the case of a movie theater screen or a big TV, the viewer usually
changes the viewing angle to see important parts of the image, not
always moving the head" - he explained. (PAP)
