Abstract
The optical layout of the invention is designed to asymmetrically stimulate at least the magnocellular and parvocellular pathways of the two eyes during binocular fusion. Furthermore, the optical layout of the invention may be adjusted to adapt to individual visual processing needs. The present invention describes a system of optics useful in furthering studies of the primate visual processing system and finding clinical applications. For the majority of the population applications of the optical system could serve instructional purposes as well as a form of entertainment. The elicited illusions are dependent on the specific individual and therefore the system distinctly allows for customization.
Claims17
A system that asymmetrically stimulates at least the parvocellular and the magnocellular pathways of the binocular visual processing of at least one set of displayed images comprising:
- a means for controlling of ambient lighting conditions in order to induce mesopic vision for both eyes;
- a means for storing and/or displaying at least one set of images that are either stationary or transient;
- a means for blocking peripheral vision of the space outside of the said means of displaying images;
- an arrangement of optics that asymmetrically stimulates at least the parvocellular and magnocellular pathways of the binocular visual processing of the at least one set of images.
A system of optics that allows independent control of at least two sets of displayed images in terms of size, shape, color, hue, luminosity contrast, resolution, and/or brightness comprising:
- at least one light emitting display capable of displaying full color streaming video;
- at least one substrate supporting reflections.
