Analysis of saccadic eye movements with a microcomputer.
This analysis of saccadic eye movements has found use in clinical diagnosis. Saccades are induced by a microcomputer-controlled TV stimulator and are recorded by electro-oculography. The analysis algorithm detects saccades by the velocity profile of eye position and then computes the principal saccadic parameters, peak velocity and amplitude. In addition, the saccades are presented on the VDU screen, together with the computed results of the analysis; they may be edited if necessary. The programs have been implemented in Pascal and Assembler languages.
