Stereoblindness (also stereo blindness) is the inability to see in 3D using stereopsis, or stereo vision, resulting in an inability to perceive stereoscopic depth by combining and comparing images from the two eyes. Individuals with only one functioning eye have this condition by definition since the visual input of the second eye does not exist.
Stereopsis recovery, also recovery from stereoblindness, is the phenomenon of a stereoblind person gaining partial or full ability of stereo vision . Recovering stereo vision as far as possible has long been established as an approach to the therapeutic treatment of stereoblind patients.
The type of changes from one eye to the other may differ depending on which level of stereoacuity is to be detected. A series of stereotests for selected levels thus constitutes a test of stereoacuity. There are two types of common clinical tests for stereopsis and stereoacuity: random dot stereotests and contour stereotests.
The TNO random dot stereotest (short: TNO stereo test or TNO test) is similar to the randot stereotest but is an anaglyph in place of a vectograph; that is, the patient wears red-green glasses (in place of the polarizing glasses used in the randot stereotest). Like other random dot stereotests, the TNO test offers no monocular clues. [4]
Old Zeiss pocket stereoscope with original test image A common Underwood & Underwood Stereoscope. A stereoscope is a device for viewing a stereoscopic pair of separate images, depicting left-eye and right-eye views of the same scene, as a single three-dimensional image.
Howard-Dolman test. Stereoacuity [1] is most simply explained by considering one of its earliest test, a two-peg device, named Howard-Dolman test after its inventors: [2] The observer is shown a black peg at a distance of 6m (=20 feet). A second peg, below it, can be moved back and forth until it is just detectably nearer than the fixed one.
A test that identifies biomarkers associated with autism just became available in most states. It's meant to help rule out autism in children who have higher likelihoods of it.
Computer stereo vision is the extraction of 3D information from digital images, such as those obtained by a CCD camera.By comparing information about a scene from two vantage points, 3D information can be extracted by examining the relative positions of objects in the two panels.
