Temporal Evolution in Potential Functions While Peripheral Viewing Video Clips with/without Backgrounds

Abstract: In daily life, stereoscopic image technology, such as 3D TV and movies, has become used in various places Images, not limited to stereoscopic images, may exhibit unfavorable biological effects depending on the viewing and physical conditions, age, and individual differences In our previous study, an increase was indicated in the sway values that were observed while/after peripheral viewing a stereoscopic video clip Backgrounds are considered to affect our balance function We examine the effect of the exposure to stereoscopic video clips without the background on our equilibrium function paper, and fifteen healthy young males voluntarily participated in the present study Their stabilograms were recorded during monocular vision or binocular parallax vision using semipermeable smart glasses, where the subjects maintained the Romberg posture in stabilometry We also measured the body sway with the subjects’ eyes closed 0–3 min after the exposure to the video clips We herein compare the temporal averaged potential functions to control the standing posture during the exposure to 2D/3D video clips with those after the exposure

A study of accommodation training by stereoscopic film presentation

Abstract: By relaxing the contracted focus-adjustment muscles around the eyeball, such as the ciliary and extraocular muscles, improvement of the pseudo-myopia is expected. This understanding has led to the accommo-dation training in which the visual target is given by stereoscopic video clips. In this study, we verify short-term effects of the accommodation training on eyesight of visual inspection workers (22 females) suffering from eye fatigue and 12 middle-aged persons. In the Measurement 1, the workers were trained in 3 days. Moreover, the middle-aged were investigated on several trials of the eyesight recovering apparatus in the Measurement 2. In the Measurement 3, we verify the effects of the accommodation training on eyesight and asthenopia of the young. The accommodation training is compared with close work on VDTs. As a result, the visual acuity was statistically improved by continuous accommodation training which will promote a ciliary muscle-stretching effect.
