Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study was to measure and evaluate changes of visual responses in viewing a 2D and 3D (three-dimensional) image. Methods: The subjects were 44 college students aged 19 to 25 years with normal binocular vision. The visual responses measured were CA/C (convergence accommodation/convergence) ratio, convergence-induced PD(interpupillary distance), accommodative responses, perceived distance in viewing a 3D image. Results: Convergence and accommodative responses in viewing the 3D image were significantly larger (p<0.05) than in 2D. A moderate positive correction was found between CA/C ratio and accommodative response (r = 0.477, p = 0.001). It was indicated that smaller PD had larger depth perception. Convergence in viewing the 3D image was significantly larger (p<0.05) than that at cognitive distance. Conclusions: The visual fatigue may be more intense in larger CA/C ratio and smaller PD when viewing 3D images.

목적: 2D와 3D 영상 시청에서 나타나는 시각반응의 변화를 측정하고 평가하고자 하였다. 방법: 시기능이 정상인만 19세 이상 25세 이하의 대학생 44명을 대상으로 하였다. CA/C비(convergence accommodation/convergence ratio), 폭주로 유도되는 PD(interpupillary distance)변화와 조절반응, 3D 영상 시청 시 자각적 인지거리를 측정하였다. 결과: 폭주와 조절은 2D 영상 시청보다 3D 영상 시청에서 더 컸으며(p<0.05), CA/C비와 조절반응은 양적 상관관계(r = 0.477, p = 0.001)를 보였다. PD가 작을수록 심도지각의 깊이는 큰 것으로 나타났으며, 3D 영상에서 폭주는 인지하고 있는 거리에서의 폭주보다 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 결론: CA/C비가 클수록, PD가 작을수록 3D 영상 시청에서 시각적 불편함은 더 심할 것으로 예상된다.
