Computer Visual Simulation of Contrast Sensitivity Deficits Induced by Laser and Chemical Antidote Exposure
Abstract
Training in some complex combat-related tasks may produce a degree of transient visual impairment which may simulate what could be expected in combat. This paper presents a method for simulating visual impairment produced by potential combat conditions. The use of a computer to both digitize and store as well as produce the simulated image has provided an ideal tool for research. The degree of realism provided by such simulation offers suggestions for development of more realistic training techniques. Keywords: Computer image analysis; Contrast sensitivity; Image simulation; Degraded images; Spatial vision; Noxious environments; Blurred vision; Adverse conditions; Benactazine; and Atropine.
