Appendix A: ARVO Paper. Binocular Viewing Mode Affects Spatio-Temporal Contrast Threshold.

Abstract

If the field-of-view is reduced such as may occur in a helmet mounted display, a number of factors change, as shown below. To increase the available field-of-view, the display may be presented in a partial binocular overlap display mode. (Convergent or divergent) as opposed to a complete binocular overlap display mode, where both eyes see the same image. We quantified changes in visual sensitivity across the field of view for these display modes by measuring contrast thresholds of various probes in various positions.
