Measurement of binocular stereoacuity for design of head mounted display with wide view

To design a new type of head mounted display (HMD) with a wide view, the depth perception at the periphery of the retina is important. In this paper, we measure the binocular stereoacuity for fovea and periphery of the retina. From the measurement data, the characteristics of binocular steroacuity is investigated. Basing on the results, we propose a method for design of a HMD with a wide view in, order to set proper disparity for fovea, and periphery of retina.
