Abstract

Chameleons locate the prey with large and independent saccades of the highly mobile eyes. Human cannot control both eyes independently, and cannot perceive independent view fields for both eyes. But we assumed that the human becomes able to perceive the images for both eyes and control visual axes with the appropriate device. In this paper, we describe a comprehensive system which provides two independent view fields to both eyes of human, using two CCD cameras independently controlled and a head-mounted display. Each camera was set to track the movement of the finger so that view fields can take any arbitrary direction. Most of subjects became able to control and understand two different view fields independently after some practice.
