G7-2　Evaluation of guiding visual attention using partial stereoscopic images

Abstract

This study shows the empirical results regarding visual guidance effect when viewers have no awareness given by partial stereoscopic images. Partial stereoscopic images were presented such that the levels of parallax were gradually increased until the participants noticed the changes. While the directions of gaze were continually monitored. As a result, it was found that visual guidance effect was observed in some cases. Also, the time to notice the parallax image was different despite that the same amount of parallax was given. It was concluded that not only the amount of parallax, but also the features of the object to which parallax was given may affect the time to notice the change of images.
