Abstract

The base of this work is an analysis and design of specialized glasses usaging the basic available parts and makings with the goal to create an experimental machinery with a possibility of eye movement research. The aim of this work was to describe a “Design and Construction of Specialized Glasses for Neurology Investigation”. The motivation for this work is to implement a system usaging primary 2D and 3D HMD (Head-Mounted Display) projection displays for eye stimulation. The result is a set of experimental models describing specialized glasses which are used to verify the proposed solution of eye movement and for measurement of the dynamic position of the head in 3D space. Modified Starburst algorithm for recognition centre pupil and calibrated scene for repeated measurement were used to detect eye movements. Created specialized projection displays for neurology investigation can perform measurements in different luminous conditions (method based on both infra red and a visible light spectrum) and stimulation with measurement of the dynamic position of the head based on programmed software.
