Expression of balance function during exposure to stereoscopic video clips

Abstract

Recently, with the rapid progress in image processing and three-dimensional (3D) technologies, stereoscopic images are available not only on television but also in theaters and gaming consoles. Asthenopia and visually induced motion sickness (VIMS) are wellknown phenomena experienced by users while viewing video clips, playing immersive video games, and other such activities. In previous studies, we showed evidence that peripherally viewing plays a role in the pathogenesis of VIMS and described the anomalous sway with the use of mathematical models. Stochastic differential equations are known to be a mathematical model of body sway. In this study, we discuss the evolution in potential functions to control the standing posture during exposure to stereoscopic video clips.
