Testing visual perception of three-dimensionally moving objects (dynamic stereoscopy).
In the past decade, visual requirements in the field of stereoscopy have considerably increased in a number of professions, as well in present-day traffic and sports. As a result of a statement of the WHO (1984) viz. that for prevention of accidents the testing of static vision only is insufficient, and that dynamic vision too should be a subject of investigation, a test for measuring dynamic stereoscopic visual acuity has been devised. With the help of two synchronously rotating prisms, a stereo test consisting of four bars is transposed into an apparent circumduction movement which is presented at different velocities. Stereoscopy under static and dynamic conditions do not run a parallel course. Dynamic stereoscopy is significantly influenced by age, but not by sex.
