The invention concerns a procedure and an arrangement for the stimulation of the human eye by projection of light patterns on the inside of a perimeter hemisphere. According to the invention, the eye of the viewer is lit in the non-visible area of the light (infrared light) in such a way that the picture, taken with an infrared camera, is of sufficient high-contrast for an evaluation through picture development, so that the actual line of sight can be calculated from the picture based on the characteristics of the eye and that, proceeding from the determined line of sight, the coordinates of the coming optical stimulation can be adjusted in such a way that the intended retinal area is stimulated.
Procedure for the optical stimulation of the human eye by projection of light patterns on the inside of a perimeter hemisphere, characterized in such a way that the light patterns are projected on the perimeter hemisphere with the help of a light source, an aperture arrangement, a lens arrangement and a light distributor and that the position of the light patterns on the perimeter hemisphere follows the line of sight.
Arrangement for the stimulation of the human eye by projection of light patterns on the inside of a perimeter hemisphere (1), characterized in a way that the tools for the determination of the line of sight of the examined eye during the projection of the light patterns on the perimeter hemisphere (1) are at hand.
