  • Neuro-ophthalmological findings are common and occasionally prominent features in movement disorders. Accordingly, careful evaluation of the ocular motor functions may provide valuable information in early detection of the diseases and monitoring of the progression. Furthermore, accurate assessment of the abnormal ocular motor findings aids in understanding the pathophysiology and mechanisms of the movement disorders, and in their differential diagnosis. Ocular motility examination should include bedside evaluation and laboratory recording of the fixational abnormalities, saccades, smooth pursuit, the vestibulo-ocular reflex, optokinetic nystagmus, and vergence eye movements. In this review, we will discuss various ocular motor findings in ataxia and parkinsonian syndromes, and hyperkinetic movement disorders.

  • 복잡한 생산시스템 속에서 빠른 속도로 제품을 생산하기 위해서 도입된 신형 고성 능 기계류의 경우에는 검사 작업자가 제품의 결점을 검출하기가 매우 어렵다. 검사작 업을 위해서 충분한 시간이 주어진다면 정확하게 처리할 수 있겠지만, 실제로는 많은 제약이 있다. 이러한 관점에서 검출오류의 결과에 대한 중요성은 증가되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 검사작업의 개인차에서 비롯하는 작업자의 결점검출방법에 관하여 살펴보고자 한다. 이를 위해서, 먼저 피실험자를 대상으로 두가지 작업방법, 즉 기능적 검사(functional search)를 하는 작업자와 지형적 검사(topographic search)를 하는 작업자로 나누어 실험을 하였다. 또한 이들이 검사작업을 하는 동안 일어나는 안구운동(eye movements)의 몇가지 요인을 측정하여 시각검사작업에 영향을 미치는 안구운동요인을 파악하고자 한다.

  • A comprehension-based computational model of pilot action planning called ADAPT is presented to model pilot performance in a flight simulation context. Individual pilots were asked to execute a series of flight maneuvers using a flight simulator, and their eye-scanning, control movements, and flight performance were recorded in a time-synched database. Computational models of each of the 25 individual pilots were constructed, and the individual models simulated execution of the same flight maneuvers performed by human pilots. The time-synched eye-scanning, control movements, and flight performance of individual pilots and their respective models were compared to test ADAPT's predictive validity.

  • The purpose of this study is to develope a computer mouse using the head movements and eye blink in order to help the disability persons who can't move the hands or foot because of car accident or cerebral apoplexy. The mouse is composed of two gyro-sensors and photo sensor. The gryo-sensors detect the head horizontal and vertical angular velocities, respectively. The photo sensor detect the eye blink to perform click, double click, and to reset the head position. In the results, we could control the mouse points in real time using the proposed system.

  • In recently, eye blink recognition, and face recognition are very popular and promising techniques. In some cases, people can use the photos and face masks to hack mobile security systems, so we propose an eye blinking detection, which finds eyes through the proportion of human face. The proposed method detects the movements of eyeball and the number of eye blinking to improve face recognition for screen unlock on the mobile devices. Experimental results show that our method is efficient and robust for the screen unlock on the mobile devices.

  • When using hazard machines such as automobiles, operators receive information through eye. The operater must process the information quickly and properly in order to perform the operation efficiently and safely. Therefore, several techniques to measure the eye movements have been developed. The choice of an optimum method for a situation depend on the type of data needed, the necessity of knowing the position of the observer's head, and the tradeoffs of precesion versus comfort. The goal of this study is to review the present status of the measure and the eye movement measuring techniques, to investigate the development trend, and to show that some measure and eye movement measuring techniques are adquate for some task.

  • A control of the body posture and movement is maintained by the vestibular system, vision, and proprioceptors. Especially, vestibular system has a very important function that controls the eye movement through vestibuloocular reflex and contraction of skeletal muscles through vestibulospinal reflex. However, postural disturbance caused by loss of vestibular function results in nausea, vomiting, vertigo and loss of craving for life. Lose of vestibular function leads to abnormal reflex of eye movements named nystagmus. Analysis of the nystagmus is needed to diagnose the vertigo, which is performed by means of electronystagmography (ENG). The purpose of this study is to develop a computerized system for data processing and an algorithm for the automatic evaluation of the slow component velocity (SCV) of nystagmus Induced by optokinetic(OKN) stimulation system. A new algorithm using recursive least square method (RLSM) to detect SCV of nystagmus is suggested in this paper. This method allows a fast and precise evaluation of the nystagmus, through artifact rejection techniques. The results are depicted in this paper.

  • This study aimed to verify the criteria of the driver monitoring systems proposed by UNECE ACSF informal working group and the ministry of land, infrastructure, and transport of South Korea using driving behavior data. In order to verify the criteria, we investigated the safety regulations of driver monitoring systems in a conditional autonomous vehicle and found that the driver monitoring measures were related to eye blinks times, head movements, and eye closed duration. Thus, we took two different experimental data including real-world driving and simulator-based drowsy driving behaviors in previous studies. The real-world driving data were used for analyzing blink times and head movement intervals, and the drowsiness data were used for eye closed duration. In the real-world driving study, 52 drivers drove approximately 11.0 km of rural road (about 20 min), 7.9 km of urban road (about 25 min), and 20.8 km of highway (about 20 min). The results suggested that the appropriate number of blinks during the last 60 seconds was 4 times, and the head movement interval was 35 seconds. The results from drowsy driving data will be presented in another paper - part 2.

  • The number of single-person households is increasing worldwide, and among them, the proportion of elderly single-person households is increasing. In the case of elderly single-person households, a significant portion of their leisure time is devoted to watching TV. However, if they fall asleep while watching TV without turning it off, it may be difficult to sleep well due to lights and sounds of TV, which can cause health problems such as depression and reduced immunity. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a system that automatically turns off the TV when a person watching TV falls asleep. Images are collected using the camera installed in front of the TV. Since the posture of a person watching TV varies from a sitting posture to a lying posture, the system is designed to determine whether or not to fall asleep regardless of the posture. In addition, since it becomes difficult to judge eye movements as a person moves away from the TV, a method for extending the judgmentable distance is proposed. The system model was implemented and tested using a Raspberry Pi, a monitor, an infrared sensor, and a camera. Eye movements were judged regardless of sitting or lying position, and the distance between a user and a TV was extended by about 200 cm.

  • Purpose: This study investigated changes in static balance during eye movement while in an upright standing position and compared static balance in elderly individuals according to age. Methods: A total of 154 elderly persons (male 23, female 136) were enrolled in the study. Participants followed an eye movement program that consisted of randomly occurring pursuit eye movement and saccadic eye movement. Participants were asked to remain in the double-leg standing position for 2 minutes 30 second while fixating their eyes on a specific target, after which they were instructed to perform eye movements for 2 minutes and 30 seconds. Static balance was measured in terms of the area, length, and average speed (cm/s) of the center of pressure (COP) displacement before and after eye movement intervention with the eyes open. Results: The area, length, and velocity of COP displacement improved significantly (p< 0.01) after intervention. No significant differences among age groups were observed. Conclusion: The results indicated that eye movement was an effective intervention for improving static balance in elderly persons.
