چکیده

The background, theories, and observations on visual stress possibly caused by viewing stereoscopic motion images are reviewed. Visual fatigue caused by stereoscopic images is a safety issue. Fatigue is possible caused by the discrepancy between accommodative and convergence stimuli that are included in the image. Studies on accommodation and convergence are surveyed and an explanation regarding the characteristics of these functions is offered. Studies in the literature on changes in oculomotor function after viewing stereoscopic images, including changes in pupillary responses, are discussed. Evaluation of visual fatigue, particularly in relation to different methods of viewing stereoscopic displays is described. 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Visual Discomfort Induced by Relative Disparity and Planar Motion of Stereoscopic Images

Viewers often complain of visual discomfort or visual fatigue after viewing the stereoscopic images. In this paper, we investigated the effects of planar motion at different depth levels on visual discomfort. In the subjective experiments, the Paired Comparison method was used to allow for a precise measurement. The Bradley-Terry model was used to analyze the subjective experimental data. The e...

Parallax Distribution and Visual Comfort on Stereoscopic Hdtv

Watching stereoscopic HDTV sometimes causes visual discomfort or fatigue. In this paper, we report two results of recent research on the relationship between visual comfort and parallax on stereoscopic HDTV. One is the relationship between visual comfort and parallax distribution in a frame, and the other is the dependence of visual comfort on the magnitude of parallax and motions in some scene...

Visual Fatigue and Motion Sickness Induced by 3D Video Clip

It is generally understood that “accommodation” and “convergence” are mismatched during stereoscopic vision and that this is the main reason for the visual fatigue and the visually induced motion sickness (VIMS). The aim of this paper is to explain results of recent studies by the present authors on this problem. Fixation distances between accommodation and convergence in young and middle-aged ...

Evaluation of stereoscopic image quality for mobile devices using Interpretation Based Quality methodology

High-quality stereoscopic image content must be viewable in a variety of visual environments, from 3-D theaters to 3-D mobile devices. Stereoscopic effects, however, are affected by screen size, viewing distance, and other parameters. In this study, the authors focus on the stereoscopic image quality experience of viewing 3-D content on a mobile device in order to compare it with that of viewin...

New stereoscopic video shooting rule based on stereoscopic distortion parameters and comfortable viewing zone

Human binocular depth perception, the most important element brought by 3DTV, is proved to be closely connected to not only the content acquisition (camera focal length, camera baseline and etc.) but also the viewing environment (viewing distance, screen size and etc.). Conventional 3D stereography rule in the literature usually consider the general viewing condition and basic human factors to ...
