Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a new binocular eye tracking system. The system adopts a wide-field, hi-resolution (2048x2048 pixels), and hi-frame-rate USB-3.0 digital camera. Infrared light illuminates both eyes and the reflected image of the illumination on the cornea and the black image of the pupil of each eye are captured by the camera. The center of the pupil is calculated by fitting an ellipse and tracked over time. The reflected image of the illumination on the cornea is used to compensate head-movements. To assess the quality of this system, we developed a new "real 3-D visual display system" that presents two wide-field visual images placed at different distances but at the same visual angle from the subject. By using the binocular eye tracking system and the real 3-D visual display system, we characterized vergence eye movements of humans when ocular fixation shifted between two visual stimuli of the same view angles placed at different distances in 3-D space.
