Fusion of computed point clouds and integral-imaging concepts for full-parallax 3D display
2020
During the last century, various technologies of 3D image capturing and visualization have spotlighted, due to both their pioneering nature and the aspiration to extend the applications of conventional 2D imaging technology to 3D scenes. Besides, thanks to advances in opto-electronic imaging technologies, the possibilities of capturing and transmitting 2D images in real-time have progressed significantly, and boosted the growth of 3D image capturing, processing, transmission and as well as display techniques. Among the latter, integral-imaging technology has been considered as one of the promising ones to restore real 3D scenes through the use of a multi-view visualization system that provi…
Integration of large-area optical imagers for biometric recognition and touch in displays
2021
In recent years there has been an increasing interest to integrate optical sensing in mobile displays, for instance, for biometric fingerprint scanning functionality. There are several routes to incorporate optical fingerprint functionality within the full display area, each with their own benefits and challenges. Here we investigate the different integration routes using large-area, ultra-thin imagers based on organic photodiodes.
Visual Distraction Effects between In-Vehicle Tasks with a Smartphone and a Motorcycle Helmet-Mounted Head-Up Display
2018
Besides motorists, also motorcyclists need safer user interfaces to interact with useful applications on the road. In this paper, distraction effects of in-vehicle tasks conducted with a head-up display (HUD) for motorcyclists were compared to smartphone tasks with 24 participants in a driving simulator. Compared to the smartphone tasks, the head-up display tasks decreased the percentage of inappropriately long glances by 45 percent. The head-up display tasks were also experienced as less demanding than the smartphone tasks. Additionally, the use of head-up display for navigation did not lead to gaze concentration effects compared to baseline driving. The head-up display is concluded to be …
Refining distraction potential testing guidelines by considering differences in glancing behavior
2021
Driver distraction is a recognized cause of traffic accidents. Although the well-known guidelines for measuring distraction of secondary in-car tasks were published by the United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 2013, studies have raised concerns on the accuracy of the method defined in the guidelines, namely criticizing them for basing the diversity of the driver sample on driver age, and for inconsistent between-group results. In fact, it was recently discovered that the NHTSA driving simulator test is susceptible to rather fortuitous results when the participant sample is randomized. This suggests that the results of said test are highly dependent on the s…
Ergonomic Comparison of a Sit-Stand Workstation With a Traditional Workstation in Visual Display Unit Work
2013
Purpose: To compare ergonomics of an electrically adjustable sit-stand workstation with a traditional workstation in video display unit (VDU) work. Methods: Twelve female workers (aged 27-53 years) participated in this experimental study. Electromyography, wrist postures, subjective assessments, and productivity were used to make the ergonomic comparison. Results: The muscle activity of the right trapezius (p=0.01) and left wrist extensors (p=0.02), extension of the right (p=0.05) and left (p=0.002) wrist, and perceived strain of the arms (p=0.05) were lower and productivity was better (p=0.02) when the workers used a low-sitting, high-sitting, or standing posture at the sit-stand workstati…
Video display terminal use and dry eye: preventive measures and future perspectives
2022
Background: Dry eye disease (DED) is a common cause of ocular pain and discomfort. Dry eye disease (DED) stems from a loss-of-tear film homeostasis and is frequently seen in video display terminal (VDT) users. Video display terminal (VDT) use reduces blink rates and increases incomplete blinks, leading to tear film instability and ocular inflammation, promoting DED. Purpose: To assess and evaluate the methods for preventing VDT-associated DED and ocular discomfort. Methods: Studies were found using PubMed and Embase with the search terms: (digital visual terminal* OR computer use OR screen use OR smartphone OR display OR visual display terminal* OR computer vision syndrome OR tablet OR phon…
When virtual and real worlds coexist: Visualization and visual system affect spatial performance in augmented reality
2021
New visualization approaches are being actively developed aiming to mitigate the effect of vergence-accommodation conflict in stereoscopic augmented reality; however, high interindividual variability in spatial performance makes it difficult to predict user gain. To address this issue, we investigated the effects of consistent and inconsistent binocular and focus cues on perceptual matching in the stereoscopic environment of augmented reality using a head-mounted display that was driven in multifocal and single focal plane modes. Participants matched the distance of a real object with images projected at three viewing distances, concordant with the display focal planes when driven in the mu…
Effects of menu structure and touch screen scrolling style on the variability of glance durations during in-vehicle visual search tasks.
2011
The effects of alternative navigation device display features on drivers' visual sampling efficiency while searching forpoints of interest were studied in two driving simulation experiments with 40 participants. Given that the number of display items was sufficient, display features that facilitate resumption of visual search following interruptions were expected to lead to more consistent in-vehicle glance durations. As predicted, compared with a grid-style menu, searching information in a list-style menu while driving led to smaller variance in durations of in-vehicle glances, in particular with nine item displays. Kinetic touch screen scrolling induced a greater number of very short in-v…
Breakthroughs in Photonics 2014: Recent Advances in 3-D Integral Imaging Sensing and Display
2015
Integral imaging concept provides a fascinating tool for the capture and display of 3-D images or movies with full parallax, with no need for special glasses and without visual fatigue due to the convergence and accommodation conflict. The limitations and recent advances in integral imaging are discussed.
La ri-mediazione digitale e la dissolvenza dell’io nel Photojournal di Annie Ernaux
2019
Scopo del contributo è l’analisi del Photojournal, un dispositivo fototestuale autobiografico che Annie Ernaux compone come premessa al volume delle sue opere, Écrire la vie (Gallimard, 2011). La sezione biografica del volume diventa una premessa autobiografica, dove l’autrice compone 70 foto e 100 brani dei suoi diari per spiegare le ragioni della sua scrittura. Le foto illustrano la realtà materiale e i diari esprimono la realtà soggettiva: le due condizioni che hanno permesso la scrittura delle opere dell’autrice. L’analisi della composizione fototestuale ha messo in rilievo due effetti di profondità: il palinsesto e il collage. Attraverso le sovrapposizioni degli strati dei documenti ri…
