One week from today, Dr. Martin Banks of the Visual Space Perception Laboratory of UC Berkeley will be hosting a free webinary on user issues in 3D Displays.  He’s got a wide range of issues to discuss that are relevant to everyone from 3d production to human vision experts.
  • A variety of user issues.
  • The temporal protocols used in stereo 3D and how they affect perceived flicker, motion artifacts, and depth distortions
  • Head roll, vertical eye movements, and visual discomfort
  • Visual-vestibular conflict and nausea
  • Vergence-accommodation conflict
  • Vergence: the inward or outward turning movement of the eyes in convergence or divergence;
  • Accommodation: the focusing of the eyes to make the image on the retinas sharp.
  • Vergence and accommodation in natural viewing; coupling
  • Vergence and accommodation in stereo displays
  • Optometric measures of discomfort
  • Evidence that vergence-accommodation conflict with stereo displays causes discomfort: blurry vision, tired eyes, and headache
  • The effect of viewing distance
  • The effect of the direction of the conflict (content in front of the screen or behind?)
  • Maintaining comfort in different viewing situations
  • Relating these findings to current practice
