title: Does fatigue exist in a quantitative measurement of eye movements?
abstract: The measurement system for quantitative analysis of eye movements and distribution of eye fixation points was developed through the study. Experiments on physiological fatigue characteristics of eye movements were studied using the system. The subjects involved in the study were six young males. No significant change was quantitatively found in saccadic eye movements during and/or after five hours of rapid eye tracking tasks. The saccadic velocity of two subjects were found in binocular decreased temporarily. The maximum velocity of eye movements obtained in the present experiment was ascertained in order to produce a scale for various visual work as an ergonomic index.
