title: [Study of multi-factor cognition evoked by binocular disparity].
abstract: It is the aim of studies in cognitive process to understand how the impressive cognitive capacity of the human mind is uninterruptedly developed and how the process is controlled. We have been focusing attention on the central question with stereoscopic research. A multi-channel EEG data acquisition system is constructed for cognition studies which not only works perfectly in the EEG collection and signal processing of stereoscopic visual evoked potentials(VEP) but also is suitable for investigative and clinical use. We have identified the fact that the processing of stereoscopic depth information is done in the cortical advance functional areas with labeled characteristic signaling of the depth related VEP and the results were shown to be of no difference when compared with the ones of other investigations. We believe, the stereoscopic depth cognition is both a dynamic multi-factor processing process and a consequence of depth perception in advanced cortical areas through biological feedback to the whole process of visual signal processing. It is our novel and significant supposition in the psychophysical study, and the experimental results of the VEP are presented in this article.
