Abstract
We developed a system that provides a human user with the artificial oculomotor ability to control their eyes independently, which was named Virtual Chameleon after Chameleons. The successful users of the system were able to actively control visual axes by manipulating 3D sensors held by their both hands, to watch independent view fields presented to the left and right eyes, and to look around as chameleons do. Although it is thought that the movements of camera angle of Virtual Chameleon corresponds to smooth movements on human eye movements, the system did not have functions to control angles of cameras corresponding to saccadic eye movements. We implemented functions to control angles camera rapidly corresponding to saccadic eye movements in Virtual Chameleon. In this paper, we performed fundamental experiments to evaluate effects on the user's visual capabilities to investigate human performance.
