53.2: A Binocular Stereoscopic Display System with Coupled Convergence and Accommodation Demands

Abstract

Abstract Conflict between the accommodation and convergence demand in stereo display systems has been implicated as a cause of perceptual error (failure of size constancy), discomfort and visual system changes. A novel method is proposed for such displays, which, by utilizing a measured object of fixation can resolve the conflicts via computational approach. We implemented such a display system and used it to evaluate the feasibility of the approach.
