カメラによる後方視野の導入が視認能力とタスク処理能力に及ぼす影響

In this study, we investigate the influence of the rear view introduction on human visibility and task processing. The rear view is provided with a system composed of a small display attached to glasses and a video camera. The influence of the rear view introduction is evaluated by an experiment to measure the response time of the lighting five lamps located around a subject. The response time is shortened by introducing the rear view by the device in the case that the simple detection of the lighting of the lamp only in the front or rear side of the subject compared to the case without rear view introduction. However, the response time tends to become much longer when two lamps in the front and rear of the subject with the naked eye and the rear view introduction system respectively. This result shows that the simple rear view introduction with hardware is not necessarily effective in expanding human viewing range and improving human visibility.
