　View Summary

<p>The authors examined the effects of chair swiveling with the psycho-physiological effects of viewing short segments of 360° videos using a head-mounted display (HMD) in terms of the type of content. Twenty participants viewed 360° videos with varying features using an eye-tracking HMD consisting of a smartphone fitted in a case containing optics. Ten participants were seated on a swivel chair and the others on a fixed one. Objective indexes on gaze and body rotation and subjective indexes on simulator sickness, emotional reaction and immersion were measured. It was found that the features of content, especially camera motion, affect psychological effects like discomfort and observation behavior, and chair swiveling affects the behavior looking around, the reception of visual information and emotional response. It turns out that the rotating chair, which is easy to think that it supports the action the user sees, does not necessarily contribute to the user experience.</p>

JES Ergonomics 51 ( 0 ) S488 - S491 2015

　View Summary

This paper was intended to examined whether the body sway during viewing stereoscopic three-dimensional (3D) tilted images was stable or not. Tilted 3D image was composed of directional information in which monocular disparity tilled by using a simple gradient depth map. Experiments were carried out to evaluate body sway using CG driving simulator in the five viewing conditions; left tilted 3D, right tilted 3D, forward tilted 3D, backward tilted 3D, and 2D condition. Standing twenty participants body sway was measured by using balance wii board while driving and judging on direction before trespassing the intersection. As a result, it was suggested that body sway was significantly increased to select same direction in left and right tilted image conditions.

　View Summary

The relationship between differences in individuals' past experience viewing stereoscopic images and their discomfort associated with 3D video was examined. In the current study, 21 subjects were categorized as either inexperienced or experienced viewers of stereoscopic images (12 and 9 subjects, respectively). Two commercially available 3D movies with different depth and motion characteristics were presented to the subjects under two different viewing conditions. Eye discomfort, fatigue in parts of the body, and mental workload were measured. We found that experienced viewers were affected more from moderate depth video with less motion, perhaps because of their higher degree of attention toward subtler depth detail. Experienced viewers reported more severe fatigue in the upper parts of their bodies, which could be attributed to their body adjustments effected in an effort to optimally receive depth information. Inexperienced viewers were affected more by images with more depth and motion, a result perhaps of their initial excitement to experience the new technology. It was shown that particularly depth-emphasized segments demand higher mental workload from experienced viewers, but the effect is transient and not cumulative. It was found that differences between the two groups are exaggerated under the near viewing condition.

　View Summary

The methods available for delivering stereoscopic (3D) display using glasses can be classified as time-multiplexing and spatial-multiplexing. With both methods, intrinsic visual artifacts result from the generation of the 3D image pair on a flat panel display device. In the case of the time-multiplexing method, an observer perceives three artifacts: flicker, the Mach-Dvorak effect, and a phantom array. These only occur under certain conditions, with flicker appearing in any conditions, the Mach-Dvorak effect during smooth pursuit eye movements (SPM), and a phantom array during saccadic eye movements (saccade). With spatial-multiplexing, the artifacts are temporal-parallax (due to the interlaced video signal), binocular rivalry, and reduced spatial resolution. These artifacts are considered one of the major impediments to the safety and comfort of 3D display users. In this study, the implications of the artifacts for the safety and comfort are evaluated by examining the psychological changes they cause through subjective symptoms of fatigue and the depth sensation. Physiological changes are also measured as objective responses based on analysis of heart and brain activation by visual artifacts. Further, to understand the characteristics of each artifact and the combined effects of the artifacts, four experimental conditions are developed and tested. The results show that perception of artifacts differs according to the visual environment and the display method. Furthermore visual fatigue and the depth sensation are influenced by the individual characteristics of each artifact. Similarly, heart rate variability and regional cerebral oxygenation changes by perception of artifacts in conditions.

　View Summary

New display technologies, such as 3D stereoscopic displays, provide opportunities to enhance the user experience (UK) in digital games. A widely-held belief is "the more stereo, the better experience." The purpose of this study is to examine this belief and evaluate the added value of 3D stereo to the UX in games. Stereo separation in a display was varied, and a multidimensional UX was measured using a psychological Presence-Involvement-Flow Framework(2) (PIFF2) in a between-subjects design. The PIFF2 findings were further supported by both qualitative and objective measures. Users' descriptions of the game were included as well as adverse symptoms, open-ended negative aspects of 3D stereo, basic eye physiology, objective performance metrics, and fundamental background variables. This hybrid qualitative-quantitative methodology shows that more stereo does not lead to better UX. It was shown that a moderate level of stereo separation affected the UX most by increasing the sense of presence among the users. These results deepen the previous findings in investigating the stereo effect in different media. The advantage of using multidimensional measures to evaluate UX, the added value of 3D stereo, and the practical implications of the results are further discussed.

Kyokai Joho Imeji Zasshi/Journal of the Institute of Image Information and Television Engineers 64 ( 12 ) 1912 - 1920 2010.12 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Since 3D display methods and viewing environments vary widely, high-quality content is expected to become multi-purpose. Meanwhile, there is increasing interest in the bio-medical effects of various types of image content and there are moves toward international standardization, so safety and comfort need to be considered in 3D content production. The aim of the authors' research is to contribute to the production and application of 3D content that is safe and comfortable. In this paper, the authors focus on the process of changing the screen size, examining a scalable 3D conversion algorithm and evaluating its effectiveness. The authors evaluated the visual load imposed during the viewing of various 3D contents converted by the prototype algorithm by comparing them with ideal conditions and with content expanded without conversion. To examine the effects of screen size reduction on viewers, changes in user impression and experience were elucidated using an evaluation grid method.

Improved Visibility of Monocular Head-Mounted Displays Through the Bright Control of Backlighting

Takashi Yamazoe, Shinsuke Kishi, Takashi Shibata, Takashi Kawai

JOURNAL OF DISPLAY TECHNOLOGY 6 ( 9 ) 367 - 373 2010.09 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Monocular head-mounted displays (HMDs) will be a major tool for ubiquitous computing. However, monocular HMD visibility causes a decrease in the light received from the environment. Fluctuating light from the environment strongly affects the visibility of images presented on the monocular HMD. In the present study, we have studied a method for controlling HMD backlighting to improve visibility at the wearing a monocular HMD under variable lighting conditions. Three backlight control patterns were developed from Experiment I as psychophysical measurements, and their validities were subjectively evaluated in Experiment II. The results suggest increased visibilities at wearing a monocular HMD when controlling the backlight. Moreover, the rules for backlighting control are based on psychophysical theory.

In video abstraction, viewer's emotional reactions to original video play an important role because people often choose what to watch based on the emotional context. We have devised a method for incorporating viewer's perceived impressions in video abstraction. The impression level is measured by the degree of arousal, based on two measures of heart activity: deceleration of heart rate and activation of the higher frequency component of the heart rate variability. For an evaluation of our method, we performed two sets of experiments comparing the abstracts generated by our method against subjective selections. Three short videos with different arousal levels (two arousing and one calm) were used. In Experiment 1, shot matching between two abstracts was examined: the arousing videos showed a 50% match, while the calm one showed a 30% match. In Experiment 2, the abstracts were displayed to the subjects, which they evaluated subjectively: our method generated good results in the arousing/pleasant video.

Time series evaluation of visual fatigue and depth sensation using a stereoscopic display

Sanghyun Kim, Shinsuke Kishi, Takashi Kawai, Toyohiko Hatada

Journal of Information Display 10 ( 4 ) 188 - 194 2009 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Conventional stereoscopic (3D) displays using binocular parallax generate unnatural conflicts between convergence and accommodation. These conflicts can affect the observer's ability to fuse binocular images and may cause visual fatigue. In this study, time series changes in visual fatigue and depth sensation when viewing stereoscopic images with changing parallax were examined. In particular, the physiological changes, including the subjective symptoms of visual fatigue, when viewing five parallax conditions, were examined. Then a comparative analysis of the 2D and 3D conditions was performed based on the visual function. To obtain data regarding the visual function, the time series changes in the spontaneous-blinking rate before and during the viewing of 3D images were measured. The time series change results suggest that 2D and 3D images cause significantly different types of visual fatigue over the range of binocular disparity. © 2009 Taylor &amp

　View Summary

A field-sequential colour projection system can display colour images using a single panel. Such a system, however, produces characteristic trichromatic separation, or "colour breakup". Colour breakup is the perceived splitting of the white portions of an image into its red, green, and blue components when the image is projected with the colour sequential method and the viewer's eyes are moving rapidly. Viewing images containing colour breakup may cause visual fatigue and other symptoms of asthenopia. In this study, the authors examine the various subjective symptoms of asthenopia that can be caused by colour breakup. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

　View Summary

Digital 3D cinema has recently become popular and a number of high-quality 3D films have been produced. However, in contrast with advances in 3D display technology, it has been pointed out that there is a lack of suitable 3D content and content creators. Since 3D display methods and viewing environments vary widely, there is expectation that high-quality content will be multi-purposed. On the other hand, there is increasing interest in the bio-medical effects of image content of various types and there are moves toward international standardization, so 3D content production needs to take into consideration safety and conformity with international guidelines. The aim of the authors' research is to contribute to the production and application of 3D content that is safe and comfortable to watch by developing a scalable 3D conversion technology. In this paper, the authors focus on the process of changing the screen size, examining a conversion algorithm and its effectiveness. The authors evaluated the visual load imposed during the viewing of various 3D content converted by the prototype algorithm as compared with ideal conditions and with content expanded without conversion. Sheffe's paired comparison method was used for evaluation. To examine the effects of screen size reduction on viewers, changes in user impression and experience were elucidated using the IBQ methodology. The results of the evaluation are presented along with a discussion of the effectiveness and potential of the developed scalable 3D conversion algorithm and future research tasks.

　View Summary

A floating-image display produces 3-D effects using a lens system that makes an image appear to float in the air. The authors examine the effects on depth perception and asthenopia of viewing a floating image that continuously changes in size. The results of the experiments suggest that viewers perceive the floating image to be moving back and forth as the image size changes despite the Act that the image's actual position does not change. Monocular depth cues, especially changes in size, enhanced the 3-D effects of images presented on the floating-image display.

Reducing binocular rivalry in the use of monocular head-mounted display

Takashi Yamazoe, Shinsuke Kishi, Takashi Shibata, Takashi Kawai, Masaki Otsuki

JOURNAL OF DISPLAY TECHNOLOGY 3 ( 1 ) 83 - 88 2007.03 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Monocular head-mounted displays (HMDs) can be used with wearable computers. However, such displays can cause binocular rivalry, a phenomenon in which the left and right images alternate, and is unstable. Binocular rivalry, when using HMD, causes the image of the environment to alternate with the HMD image, or even the total loss of perception of the image from the HMD. Binocular rivalry can occur with displays of any resolution. In this study, we used optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) to reduce binocular rivalry. A special stimulus synchronized to the occurrence of binocular rivalry was used to trigger OKN. The subject was asked to observe a visual stimulus and press a trigger button whenever binocular rivalry occurred. This initiated the presentation of a specific spatial frequency stimulus that broke up the rivalry. Electro-oculogram (EOG) electrodes recorded the observer's possible loss of perception of the HMD image, helping to confirm the occurrence of binocular rivalry. Sixteen subjects participated in the experiments. The results indicate that synchronizing special stimuli to the viewers' responses in order to induce OKN can reduce binocular rivalry.

Kyokai Joho Imeji Zasshi/Journal of the Institute of Image Information and Television Engineers 61 ( 12 ) 1742 - 1749 2007 [Refereed]

　View Summary

A field-sequential color projection system displays color images using a single panel and a color filter wheel. The wheel spins very rapidly, and creates a sequence of red, green, blue, and white images that combine to create a single full-color image. Although the use of a single panel can reduce both projector size and costs, the field-sequential color projection mechanism causes the observer to perceive trichromatic separation during times of rapid eye movement. This phenomenon is called "color breakup". We examine the characteristics of saccadic eye movement, which result from viewing images containing color breakup. We describe two experiments that were conducted to examine the effects of color breakup as manifested through the ergonomic indices of eye movement and the subjective symptoms of asthenopia.

Visual Fatigue in Congenital Nystagmus Caused by Viewing Images of Color Sequential Projectors

Masaki Ogata, Kazuhiko Ukai, Takashi Kawai

JOURNAL OF DISPLAY TECHNOLOGY 1 ( 2 ) 314 - 320 2005.12 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Color breakup is the perceived splitting of the white portions of an image into its red, green, and blue components when the image is projected with the color sequential method and the viewer is moving his or her eyes. This study aims to evaluate how color breakup affects symptoms of visual fatigue in people with congenital nystagmus. The eyes of people with congenital nystagmus continuously oscillate leading to color breakup without pause. One in every 1 500 persons is afflicted with congenital nystagmus. Many sufferers have almost no symptoms in daily life except for a mild deterioration of visual acuity. Five subjects with congenital nystagmus were shown a 15-min portion of a movie projected with three video projectors (one liquid cyrstal display (LCD) projector and two single-chip digital light processing (DLP) projectors). They were subjectively evaluated both pre- and post-viewing with a questionnaire listing visual fatigue symptoms. One subject was tested in an additional experiment using six more projectors. Results indicated that subjects with congenital nystagmus felt severe visual fatigue after they viewed images produced by color sequential projectors. Mechanism of the cause of visual fatigue is not clear in general and in color breakup in congenital nystagmus, however, it was clear that people with nystagmus felt continuing color breakup as a flickering image. Flickering light is a major cause of visual fatigue. Color sequential projectors are best avoided in public settings, such as classrooms, lecture theaters and conference sites.

Crowdedness estimation in public pedestrian space for pedestrian guidance

S Toyosawa, T Kawai

2005 IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Conference (ITSC) 137 - 142 2005 [Refereed]

　View Summary

A degree of crowdedness in public pedestrian space is obtained from sequences of greyscale images and still colour images in order to provide a route selection hint to pedestrians. Two measures are employed: amount of motion and colour entropy, and they are used selectively depending on the nature of target space. The pedestrian space is categorised into two: smooth and stagnated. The smooth space urges pedestrians to flow smoothly without pausing, while the stagnated space invites pedestrians to pause for socialising. A degree of stagnation, obtained from accumulated differentiated images, is used to distinguish these two types of space. The amount of motion and the colour entropy are compared against human's sense of crowdedness for evaluation. The experiments have shown that the amount of motion represents the smooth space's crowdedness well, while the colour entropy is suitable for evaluating the stagnated space. It has also shown tendency of significance between the degree of stagnation and the types of space.
Stereoscopic 3-D display with dynamic optical correction for recovering from asthenopia

T Shibata, T Kawai, M Otsuki, N Miyake, Y Yoshihara, T Iwasaki

Stereoscopic Displays and Virtual Reality Systems XII 5664 1 - 9 2005 [Refereed]

　View Summary

The purpose of this study was to consider a practical application of a newly developed stereoscopic 3-D display that solves the problem of discrepancy between accommodation and convergence. The display uses dynamic optical correction to reduce the discrepancy, and can present images as if they are actually remote objects. The authors thought the display may assist in recovery from asthenopia, which is often caused when the eyes focus on a nearby object for a long time, such as in VDT (Visual Display Terminal) work. In general, recovery from asthenopia, and especially accommodative asthenopia, is achieved by focusing on distant objects. In order to verify this hypothesis, the authors performed visual acuity tests using Landolt rings before and after presenting stereoscopic 3-D images., and evaluated the degree of recovery from asthenopia. The experiment led to three main conclusions:
(1) Visual acuity rose after viewing stereoscopic 3-D images on the developed display.
(2) Recovery from asthenopia was particularly effective for the dominant eye in comparison with the other eye.
(3) Interviews with the subjects indicated that the Landolt rings were particularly clear after viewing the stereoscopic 3-D images.

　View Summary

We have developed a stereoscopic 3-D display system with dynamic optical correction that reduces the optical discrepancy. The contents of this system allows various camera controls in virtual space to produce different impressions. This is accomplished by means of a customized VR authoring tool attached to the system. We examined camera control patterns in VR space and effective expression techniques using this system. The results show that various camera control patterns significantly affect the Subject's impression of the images.
A method for reducing asthenopia by using stereoscopic 3-D images

Kyokai Joho Imeji Zasshi/Journal of the Institute of Image Information and Television Engineers 59 ( 10 ) 1534 - 1540 2005 [Refereed]

　View Summary

We developed a prototype system to reduce asthenopia by using stereoscopic 3-D images that moved in depth direction, and evaluated the effects of the system. Accommodative step response time, profiles of mood states and refractions were measured as indexes for examining the subject's visual fatigue. In young subjects, the accommodative relaxation time tended to be shortened by watching the images. This tendency indicates that the ciliary muscle quickly relaxed. In contrast, we observed an increase of accommodation in some aged subjects while they viewed the images. These results suggest that the work of the ciliary muscle is activated by observing the images. Our results suggest the possibility that viewing stereoscopic 3-D images can reduce asthenopia.

We utilised interframe differencing as a measure for crowdedness. As talking aloud in crowded space is perceived as socially questionable behaviour, this "awareness" information would help mobile users to avoid unnecessary annoyance to others. To this end, we evaluated the correlation between differential images and sense of crowdedness, and found the measure was useful.

　View Summary

Stereoscopic video teaching can facilitate understanding for current minimally-invasive operative techniques. This project was created to set up a digital stereoscopic teaching environment for training of ENT residents and medical students. We recorded three ENT operative procedures (tympanoplasty, paranasal sinus operation and laser chordectomy) at the University Hospital Aachen. The material was edited stereoscopically at the Waseda University and converted into a streaming 3-D video format, which does not depend on PAL or NTSC signal standards. Video clips were evaluated by 5 ENT specialists and 11 residents in single sessions on an LCD monitor (8) and a CRT monitor (8). Emphasis was laid on depth perception, visual fatigue and time to achieve stereoscopic impression. Qualitative results were recorded on a visual analogue scale, ranging from I (excellent) to 5 (bad). The overall impression was rated 2,06 to 3,13 in the LCD group and 2,0 to 2,62 in the CRT group. The depth impression was rated 1,63 to 2,88 (LCD) and 1,63 to 2,25 (CRT). Stereoscopic video teaching was regarded as useful in ENT training by all participants. Further points for evaluation will be the quantification of depth information as well as the information gain in teaching junior colleagues.

STEREOSCOPIC DISPLAYS AND VIRTUAL REALITY SYSTEMS XI 5291 415 - 422 2004 [Refereed]

　View Summary

The authors have developed a binocular-type display system that allows digital archives of cultural assets to be viewed in their actual environment. The system is designed for installation in locations where such cultural assets were originally present. The viewer sees buildings and other heritage items as they existed historically by looking through the binoculars. Images of the cultural assets are reproduced by stereoscopic 3D CG in cyberspace, and the images are superimposed on actual images in real-time. This system consists of stereoscopic CCD cameras that capture a stereo view of the landscape and LCDs for presentation to the viewer. Virtual cameras. used to render CG images from digital archives. move in synchrony with the actual cameras, so the relative position of the CG images and the landscape on which they are superimposed is always fixed. The system has manual controls for digital zoom. Furthermore, the transparency of the CG images can be altered by the viewer. As a case study for the effectiveness of this system, the authors chose the Heijyoukyou ruins in Nara, Japan. The authors evaluate the sense of immersion, stereoscopic effect, and usability of the system.

　View Summary

This paper describes an examination of a stereoscopic 3-D display system using a correction lens. The purpose of the system is to reduce the accommodation and convergence difference during viewing stereoscopic 3-D images by using simple technique. This correction lens is a mono-focal lens, and added to the polarized filter glasses.
In this study, the authors carried out three experiments in order to examine the appropriate utilization conditions and effects of the correction lens. In experiment 1, the refractive power of correction lens was examined under six conditions in which distances of accommodation and convergence were theoretically equal. In experiment 2, the presenting condition of stereoscopic 3-D images suitable for the correction lens was examined by measurement of refractions during viewing visual target that moved in depth direction. In experiment 3, the effectiveness of the correction lens was examined by using the utilization conditions obtained in experiment 1 and 2.
From the results of the experiments, the following conclusions were drawn.
(1) Correction lenses shift the accommodation distance.
(2) Using a correction lens with the appropriate refractive power and setting the appropriate conditions for presenting stereoscopic 3-D images reduced the difference between accommodation and convergence.
(3) The use of a correction lens affected the subjective symptoms of asthenopia.

At the same time, the software makes possible the post-recording adjustment of field-sequential 3-D movies, a difficult task for conventional editing systems. In addition, the results of the usability test confirmed the software's ease of use and enhancement of editing tasks.

ERGONOMICS 39 ( 11 ) 1381 - 1389 1996.11 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Manufacturing systems that employ modern technology often deprive workers of their humanity. One such example is seen in teleconferencing between remote plants. Here, it is difficult for participants to make eye-to-eye contact, a major obstacle in the communication of the participants' intentions and emotions. Indeed participants often complain that the facial expressions or emotions of the other side are difficult to perceive, that it is difficult to carry on a friendly, warm conversation, or that it is difficult to convey one's intentions to the other. They thus tend to become irritated during these conferences, and at times make erroneous judgements. In such situations, it can be said that the system users are being deprived of their humanity. This occurs because a machine or computer, when placed between two people communicating, interferes with a natural communication. What measures are there then to achieve a natural communication in such a setting, with a machine or computer between those communicating? These methods are classified here. In this study, a system for communicating 'presence' was employed to achieve a natural communication. The prototype system is called a 'dummy head for 3-D audiovisual recording'. Using this dummy head, dialogue between operators, remote control, as well as the recording of a skilled worker's use of his hands were carried out, and the results were evaluated. From these results, the authors report on how the prototype system, when placed between humans, helps to achieve a natural communication. Finally, some examples are given to show the human need for achieving a natural communication in such interface situations.
Psychological effect of stereoscopic 3-D images with fragrances

ERGONOMICS 39 ( 11 ) 1364 - 1369 1996.11 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Stereoscopic 3-D images are used with a lot of virtual reality systems because of their sense of reality. At the same time, in the training that heightens levels of self control of autonomic responses with images, it is thought that reality of software is important. Therefore, the authors investigated use of 3-D images as a technical tool to heighten the reality of software. In this study, a laboratory was transformed into a relaxation room using 3-D images with fragrances and an experiment was carried out to examine the psychological effect of it. From the results of this study, the authors reported on the effects of fragrances on psychological responses when viewing 3-D images and the possibilities of producing these effects for relaxation.
Performance of 3-D digitizing in stereoscopic images

T Inoue, T Kawai, K Noro

ERGONOMICS 39 ( 11 ) 1357 - 1363 1996.11 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Experiments were conducted to understand the basic characteristics of pointing to three-dimensional images generated by stereoscopic images. The experimental examination found that it was difficult to point to the correct position of the image and that the depth of the image was underestimated so that the object perceived by the subject was distorted. Subjects who were familiar with viewing 3-D images made less error in position and size perception than did subjects having little experience in viewing 3-D images. These results imply that the performance of 3-D pointing in stereoscopic 3-D images will improve with experience although it is difficult to perform a 3-D pointing precisely.

　View Summary

We used virtual reality (or augmented reality) imaging system as a novel approach to clarify the 3D surgical anatomy of the pancreas, bile duct, and major vessels. 3D virtual reality images were generated with 3D imaging software application OsiriX. OsiriX is a useful application that allows creation of 3D imaging model. We created surface-rendered virtual reality images derived from a computer reconstruction of the cross-sectional magnetic resonance imaging or multi-detector computed tomography. 3D Virtual reality imaging could demonstrate not only major vessels but also the bile duct around the pancreas and liver. 3D Virtual reality images was useful for surgical simulation and surgical planning of resection of cholangiocarcinoma and pancreatic cancer
Emotional enhancement and the effects of stereoscopic image content

Project Year :

2013.04

-

2016.03

　View Summary

In this research, an approach for producing functional depth sensation, to enable emotional enhancement, was proposed and examined in order to establish stereoscopic (3D) images as a new media to support entertainment and culture.Specifically, experimental investigations were carried out using 2D to 3D conversion to add binocular disparity to images for inducing emotions (emotional images). From the results, it was found that the degree of emotional arousal was increased by 2D to 3D conversion, and this tendency was enhanced by disparity modification which was proposed in this research.In addition, the effects of emotional enhancement by 2D to 3D conversion and disparity modification of emotional images were examined in terms of time perception. Experiments showed basic tendencies that enhancement of emotional arousal by converted and disparity modified 3D images and the lengthening effects of time estimation

2014.03

　View Summary

This research proposed the method that represents a tactile sensation using cross modal Illusion. The illusion induces a tactile movement sensation using visual and tactile stimulus. This illusion is expected to apply to the media content and human interface systems. Therefore, the characteristics of the cross modal illusion were examined.We found an another new illusion that induced the tactile sensation using visual stimuli in this research. The new illusion occurs by observation of visual stimuli through a see-through HMD. The illusion was thought that is available for Augmented Reality content. Therefore, we examined the factor of visual stimuli and the method for induction of illusion. The result of the experiment indicated that a see-through HMD is suitable for induction of this illusion.In recent, HMD is improved and expected to become popular. The illusion we proposed is thought that contributes to media content for HMD

Digital Archive Construction and Research on the Recording Methods of the Cliff Images in Sichuan-sheng, China

　View Summary

This research features a precious group of Chinese cultural legacy, the abundant cliff images remaining in the Sichuan area, aiming to create a record of their present state in preparation for the progressing destruction due to erosion and human cause, and to seek an effective recording method for research and preservation efforts. The researchers worked in collaboration with Sichuan University and the Chengdu-city Research Institute of Archaeology, the partnering research institutions in China, and tested variations of research methods through executing a complete enumeration of the cliff images within the targeted areas and then completing a record of their entire contents. The targeted areas were Pujiang and Qionglai, both located in the western part of the Sichuan Basin. The cliff image sites counted eighteen in Pujiang and five in Qionglai, with a grand total of over six hundred grottoes. The basic recording methods used were photography, measurement and description of the Buddhist statues and their attachments including the grotto structures, survey drawings, and rubbings. As a possible replacement for survey drawings with their inevitable shortcomings, the researchers introduced non-contact 3D laser scanning -a pioneering attempt in the genre of archaeological studies of Chinese grottoes- and verified its advantages and disadvantages. Furthermore, the researchers presented a number of research papers using the resulting data, discussing the significance of the artistic activities within the area from the perspective of Buddhist art history, thus contributing a meaningful prospect for regional studies in the genre of Chinese Buddhist art history
The Study and Development Regarding Cultural Property Preservation and Restoration Using X-ray CT Scanner

　View Summary

This inter-disciplinary research was made possible by cooperation from researchers from both literary and scientific fields, and aimed to develop a preservation and restoration method for wooden cultural assets, especially Buddhist sculptures, using medical-use x-ray CT scanner. The biggest advantage of the x-ray CT scanning method is that it allows one to obtain information on the inner structure of cultural properties without physical contact, and thus without risking damage to the actual property. The method is especially effective in cases where the original state of the property is unknown due to restoration activities from later periods. Specifically, by reconstructing slice images from CT scanning, the researchers were able to recreate the original state on the computer monitor. Furthermore, not only does the method provide hints on the time period at which the property was created, but also allows one to examine whether there are any objects concealed within the sculpture, and in cases where such objects exist, their shapes. The method has already been proven effective in restoration activities of wooden Buddhist sculptures
錯覚を利用したサイバースペース介入システムの試作と評価

　View Summary

本研究課題では、仮想空間(サイバースペース)における、より直感的な操作を可能とするインタフェースデバイスの開発を目的とし、知覚心理学領域で報告された錯覚を応用することで、仮想の物体に身体感覚を誘発させるシステムの試作を行い、その効果について検討を行った。実験システムの構築にあたり、仮想の手と実際の手との空間的整合性を保って呈示するディスプレイシステムを開発した。このディスプレイシステムと、触覚フィードバック機構を備えたデータグローブ、視覚刺激用映像と触覚刺激を同期させて出力するコンピュータによって、実験システムを構築した。構築したシステムを用いて、仮想の手にも身体感覚を誘発させる錯覚が発生するか実験的に検証を行った。次に、錯覚発生に影響する要因について、錯覚を誘発しやすい視・触覚刺激の呈示方法、およびサイバースペースの表現方法について、評価実験により検討を行った。実験の結果、仮想の物体にも同様に錯覚が発生することが確認された、また、刺激呈示方法については、刺激定位がより正確に知覚できる条件でもっとも錯覚が発生しやすいことがわかった。さらに、本システムのインタフェースシステムとしての効果を検証するために、実験で用いたシステムにインタラクションを可能にする機構を付加した。このシステムを用い、インタラクションを付加させた状態の錯覚発生に与える影響について、インタビュー法による主観評価実験を行った。結果として、インタラクションを実現させるために必要な装置を手指に付加させることが、錯覚発生を抑制してしまうという意見が多く聞かれた。インタフェースとして錯覚を利用するためには、その表現方法についての工夫が必要になると示唆された。本研究で得られた知見から、今後の課題として、インタラクションを付加させる際の、システムの構築方法について検討が必要であると考えられた
カンボディアにおける中世遺跡と日本人町の研究

　View Summary

A.日本人町の調査本年度は7月17日から24日に、ポニャールー第二次発掘調査を行った。今年度の調査はこれまで日本人町の推定地として何度か取り上げられてきたNO.1地点の教会跡地の東側に2カ所の調査区を設定した。東側の川に近い調査地では遺物の出土量も少なく、顕著な遺構も発見できなかった。教会の建物推定地に設定した調査区では、教会の床と思われる漆喰の層を検出し、この位置に教会が存在したことを確認できた。また漆喰床面を断ち割った下からは、ガラス瓶の破片が出土し、この教会が近代をさかのぼるものではないことが判明した。表採遺物の調査本年度発掘調査の終了後に、出土遺物の調査を行った。今回も昨年度におもにNO.5地点で表採された中国陶磁の写真撮影と実測調査を行った。B.窯跡の調査クメール陶器研究では、ソサイ窯跡の第3次調査を行った1月22日から2月3日まで行った。今回の調査で窯跡の大まかな規模と構造がはっきりした。窯跡は幅約2m、長さ約5mの規模で、これまで調査したタニ窯跡より規模が小さいことがわかった。遺物の採集もあわせて行い、来年度の調査報告書刊行に備えた。C.国際シンポジウム1.月30日から2月1日までの3日間、国際シンポジウム、Early Settlements in the Neohthic period and the production of Khmer Ceramicsを開催した。30日は基調講演としてSPAFA代表ピシット氏と、ビクトリアアルバート美術館のジョンガイ氏に講演をお願いした。31日は午前に新石器時代、午後にクメール陶器のシンポジウムを行った。2月1日には、シンポジウム参加者をソサイ窯跡の発掘現場に招待し、現地説明会を行った。今回のシンポジウムの実施によって、各国の研究者同士の情報交換が行われると共に、今後も引き続き、定期的にこのようなシンポジウムを開催することの必要性が浮かび上がった

本研究課題では、身体イメージにかかる錯覚をサイバースペースに誘発することによる、インタフェースへの応用やサイバースペースシステムの構築を目的としている。前年度の研究活動では、錯覚の発生に関わる刺激呈示条件についての知見が得られた。また、錯覚の評価方法について、自己受容感覚のずれが指標となることが示唆されたが、インタフェースシステムへの応用にあたっては、錯覚誘発刺激の実装手法の検討が課題として残された。そこで本年度の研究活動においては、身体感覚の獲得に必要とされる視覚、触覚、自己受容感覚への刺激呈示の関連性について、実験的な検討を行った。錯覚発生の指標として、上述の身体の位置感覚の変化を利用した。結果から、錯覚誘発刺激の実装手法として、自己受容感覚への刺激を伴う場合に、錯覚発生が抑制される可能性が示唆された。また本年度は、仮想身体感覚のインタフェースへの応用として、教育・訓練分野を想定したサイバースペースシステムを構築した。具体的には、工場内での作業場面を再現し、仮想身体感覚を伴うことによるタスクパフォーマンスの評価を行った。作業中の精神状態の評価指標として、皮膚電気反応を選択した。構築したサイバースペースシステムを用いた実験では、皮膚電気反応と作業内容との相関が見られ、当該用途における仮想身体感覚の呈示は有効であると考えられた。さらに、仮想身体感覚の呈示方法の高度化として、カメラ付ヘッドマウントディスプレイを用いた強化現実型に着目し、仮想の身体と現実の身体との関連性において、空間的自由度の高いシステムを試作した。今後は、上記用途における仮想身体感覚呈示システムの実用化と、呈示方法の高度化に伴う効果的なコンテンツの開発手法について検討を行っていく
凹面鏡による立体虚像生成原理を応用した高精度3次元観察・計測装置の開発

　View Summary

昨年度の研究により、直径40cm程度の凹面鏡では、中心部約10cm程度の空間において約5%の歪で画像観察が可能であることが判明しており、本年度は昨年度試作された観察装置に対して(1)対象物の観察者の手による直接操作を可能にすること。(2)光学的な計測装置を付加することにより、立体形状を計測する。の2点を可能にするための筐体加工を行なった。結果として、(1)は有効に機能することが確認され、自然な奥行き感を伴う細かな操作にも、電子的に生成された立体画像に比べて格段に疲労感が少なく、精密加工や医療分野などにおける精密な観察・操作に適していることが確認された。現在医療分野への応用に関する共同研究を計画中である。(2)に関しては画像計測時の鏡面反射における画像の歪除去の問題を解決するまでには至らなかったが、比較的小さな対象物の立体形状の計測の可能性に関して基礎的な知見を得ることができた。今後はこの試作装置を活用して、凹面鏡を利用した立体形状の精密計測に関する研究を継続してゆく予定で、企業との共同研究の計画が進行中である
脳機能の特性を活用したクロスモーダルコンテンツ

　View Summary

本研究課題では、脳機能の解明によって明らかとなった認知特性を利用して、新たな身体感覚を生起する情報の呈示手法とその内容を、クロスモーダル(感覚統合)コンテンツと呼称し、次世代メディアとしてのクロスモーダルコンテンツの制作・応用・検証を行った。具体的な取り組みとして、身体イメージを利用したコンテンツの制作、脳活動のモニタリングによる客観的な評価法の検討ならびに共感覚的なクロスモーダル表現手法の開発を行った。本研究課題の遂行によって得られた知見を以下にまとめる。1)身体イメージを利用したコンテンツ制作として、身体イメージの誘発を利用した安全教育用VRコンテンツの試作を行った。アンケート調査の結果から、多様な認知状態を対象としたコンテンツ開発への展開が考察された。2)身体イメージ獲得という認知体験について、脳機能計測(NIRS)を用いた評価手法の検討を行った。実験の結果、特定の脳部位の観察によって、身体イメージの誘発が評価できることが示唆された。データ解析方法についても、トレンド解析によるノイズ除去が可能となった。3)視触覚のクロスモーダル刺激によって、仮想の触運動感覚が生じるという錯覚を発見し、この錯覚について評価実験を行った。結果、主観評価とNIRSデータの結果にある程度の関連性を認めることができた。4)上記錯覚に関連し、実際には呈示されていない触覚を生起するという共感覚的な現象に注目し、基礎的な検討を行った。試作コンテンツを用いたNIRSによる評価実験の結果から、特徴的な体験の生起が示唆された。以上、本研究課題の推進により、具体的かつ有益な知見を数多く取得できたことから、新たなメディアコンテンツの可能性を拓く、近未来のコア技術の形成に寄与できたと考える

公共空間におけるタッチレスインタフェースの基礎検討

2020

　View Summary

本研究では、ポスト・コロナ時代におけるヒューマンインタフェース・インタラクションの概念として、SDUI（Social Distance User Interface）を提案し、社会実装を想定したSDUIの実施例としてクロスモーダル3Dディスプレイシステムを構築し、その基本特性を評価した。具体的に、身体部位に重畳表示された虚像によって微弱な触感が生起されるという、研究代表者らの先行研究に基づき「実際には触れていないのに、触れたような感覚が得られる」という視覚誘発型微触感錯覚を応用したクロスモーダルシステムを試作した。これを公共空間におけるタッチ型インタフェースのイノベーションの一形態と位置付け、その基本特性について人間工学的なアプローチによる実験的検討を行った。
拡張クロスモダリティとダイバーシティ体験

2019

　View Summary

本研究課題では、バーチャルリアリティ（VR）技術における新たなアプローチとして「拡張クロスモダリティ」という概念を提唱し、その要件や有効性について実証的な検討を行った。拡張クロスモダリティとは、「所望する感覚や体験に伴う生体情報を、感覚刺激として解析・変換・表現する」アプローチである。拡張クロスモダリティの実証的な取り組みの過程において、他者の身体機能や精神状態の対象とし、スポーツ選手の感覚や体験の解析・変換・表現を選定した。具体的には、本学オリンピック・パラリンピック事業推進室等との連携により、フェンシング選手に乗り移ったかのような体験を意図したVRシステムについて試作・評価を行った。
バーチャルリアリティ体験の日常生活行動としての位置づけと要因・相互作用の分析

2017

　View Summary

本研究では、日常生活におけるバーチャルリアリティ（VR）体験の生体に与える影響に着目し、心拍変動を指標とした実験的な検討を行った。目的は、日常生活行動におけるVR体験の位置づけと、生活行動の一つとしての有効活用への知見を得ることである。実験的検討では10例の参加者を対象として、3日間の心拍変動の連続測定を行い、1日1回の30分間のVR体験を求めた。結果から、積極的なインタラクションを生起するVR体験によって、心拍変動から求めたストレス値が減少する傾向が認められた。

本研究課題では、仮想空間（サイバースペース）における、より直感的な操作を可能とするインタフェースデバイスの開発を目的とし、知覚心理学領域で報告された錯覚を応用することで、仮想の物体に身体感覚を誘発させるシステムの試作を行い、その効果について検討を行った。実験システムの構築にあたり、仮想の手と実際の手との空間的整合性を保って呈示するディスプレイシステムを開発した。このディスプレイシステムと、触覚フィードバック機構を備えたデータグローブ、視覚刺激用映像と触覚刺激を同期させて出力するコンピュータによって、実験システムを構築した。構築したシステムを用いて、仮想の手にも身体感覚を誘発させる錯覚が発生するか実験的に検証を行った。次に、錯覚発生に影響する要因について、錯覚を誘発しやすい視・触覚刺激の呈示方法、およびサイバースペースの表現方法について、評価実験により検討を行った。実験の結果、仮想の物体にも同様に錯覚が発生することが確認された、また、刺激呈示方法については、刺激定位がより正確に知覚できる条件でもっとも錯覚が発生しやすいことがわかった。さらに、本システムのインタフェースシステムとしての効果を検証するために、実験で用いたシステムにインタラクションを可能にする機構を付加した。このシステムを用い、インタラクションを付加させた状態の錯覚発生に与える影響について、インタビュー法による主観評価実験を行った。結果として、インタラクションを実現させるために必要な装置を手指に付加させることが、錯覚発生を抑制してしまうという意見が多く聞かれた。インタフェースとして錯覚を利用するためには、その表現方法についての工夫が必要になると示唆された。本研究で得られた知見から、今後の課題として、インタラクションを付加させる際の、システムの構築方法について検討が必要であると考えられた。
リハビリテーションおよび緩和ケアを目的とした立体ディスプレイシステムの開発と評価

2001

　View Summary

　本研究は、立体映像技術を、高齢者のリハビリテーションや緩和ケアへ応用するための取り組みである。前年度までの経緯として、指向性反射スクリーンによる立体ディスプレイを歩行訓練機に搭載し、高齢者を対象として、立体映像コンテンツの観察を伴った歩行訓練を行った。その結果から、高齢者の立体映像コンテンツに対する興味や意見を確認でき、高齢者を対象とする際の課題と、システム開発におけるハードウェア設計の改善が示唆された。そこで今年度は、本システムの福祉領域での実用化を目的として、システム設計に関するパラメトリックなデータの取得を行った。　具体的には、ADLスコアが比較的高く、歩行訓練をリハビリテーションとして処方できる、高齢者11例（男性6例、女性5例。平均年齢75.6+-9.4歳）を被験者として、歩行訓練中の観察中心位置を測定した。結果から、上下方向には約40cm（トレッドミル上115～155cm）、前後方向には約45cm（サポートアーム前端から20～65cm）、左右方向には約25cmの移動範囲があることが分かった。左右方向においては、片足に支障がある場合、片側に寄ってしまうという傾向も見られた。本立体ディスプレイは、立体映像観察のためのメガネを装着する必要がない反面、観察位置がある程度限定される。被験者のプロトコル結果とあわせ、本システムの観察位置の裕度は、前後方向に5cm未満、左右方向に5cm未満であることが分かった。それより、高齢者の身体特性を考慮したシステム設計も必要であることが示唆された。　本研究の今後の方向性としては、システム開発に加え、コンテンツに関する検討と評価、そして表情や身体動作の測定機能の付加など、福祉領域での実用化を目指し、システムの最適化を図っていきたいと考えている。
福祉応用を目的とした立体映像コンテンツに関する研究

2000

　View Summary

　本研究は、立体映像技術を、高齢者のリハビリテーションや緩和ケアへ応用するための取り組みである。前年度までの経緯として、指向性反射スクリーンによる立体ディスプレイを用いて、高齢者に立体映像を呈示し、立体視機能の調査を行うと共に、対象者の選定に関する検討を行ってきた。その結果、対象者選定の一基準として、ADLスコアを手がかりとすることが示唆された。　これを踏まえて本研究では、この立体ディスプレイを歩行訓練機に搭載し、ADLスコアが比較的高い高齢者を対象として、立体映像コンテンツの観察を伴った歩行訓練を行った。呈示したコンテンツとしては、（1）奈良県薬師寺の建築物や仏像、（2）スペインの修道院、（3）公園のウォークスルー、を用意した。その結果、「歩行訓練中に映像があった方がよい」といった肯定的な意見と、「歩行訓練と映像観察というように複数のことを同時に行うのは困難だ」といった否定的な意見が聞かれた。それにより、高齢者の立体映像コンテンツに対する興味や意見を確認でき、高齢者を対象とする際の課題と、システム開発におけるハードウェア設計の改善が示唆された。また、この実験では、立体映像の観察時間は長くても約15分間であったが、自覚的な眼精疲労は認められなかった。　立体映像の利用により、平面映像と比べてより高度な情報の呈示が可能となる。しかし、それを高齢者を対象とした福祉分野へ応用する場合、さまざまな課題が残されていることが、本研究を通して明らかになった。今後は、コンテンツに関する検討と評価に加え、システム設計に関するパラメトリックなデータの取得を行い、福祉領域での実用化を目指したいと考えている。
バーチャルリアリティを応用した痴呆性高齢者の診断・リハビリシステムの開発と評価

1999

　View Summary

　本研究は、バーチャルリアリティ技術を、高齢者のリハビリテーションへ適用するための取り組みである。筆者らは、昨年度までに痴呆性高齢者の表情の測定と解析を行っており、軽度の痴呆性高齢者が、映像刺激に対して強い興味を抱く傾向が認められている。そこで本研究では、映像刺激として高臨場感な立体映像を利用した、リハビリテーション機器の開発を検討している。今年度は、立体ディスプレイシステムを試験的に構築し、痴呆性高齢者に立体映像の観察を求め、両眼立体視機能に関する調査と、本システムに適した患者の検討を行った。　実験は、山口県下関市の昭和病院のリハビリテーション室で実施した。日常会話が行える程度の軽度の痴呆性高齢者10例に対し、ランダム・ドット・ステレオグラムと海中風景などの実写映像を観察させた。立体映像の呈示には、指向性反射スクリーンを用いた投射型立体ディスプレイを用いた。このディスプレイは、明るい部屋で特殊なメガネを着用することなく、大画面の立体映像を鑑賞することが可能という特徴があり、病院内での利用に適していると考えられた。データの測定は、映像観察中の、問いかけによる立体視の確認の他、2台のビデオカメラで被験者の表情と身体動作の撮影を行った。また、映像呈示後に、本システムで用いるコンテンツに関するインタビューも行った。さらに、映像呈示前後に、眼精疲労に関する自覚症状の調査を行った。　実験の結果から、8例の被験者のうち、6例が呈示映像に対して立体視を形成していることが推測された。解析においては、痴呆度を示す長谷川式スコアとADLスコアに関して、立体視形成との関係を検討した。各スコアに関して、ノンパラメトリック検定を行ったところ、ADLスコアと立体視形成において、5％水準で有意差が認められた。これは、痴呆性高齢者の立体映像との適合性について、痴呆度よりもADLスコアとの関連性が高いことを示唆している。同時に、ADLスコアが高い被験者ほど、立体映像に対し、強い興味を示す傾向が認められた。また、眼精疲労に関する調査では、映像呈示前後での顕著な変化は認められなかった。　本研究の今後の課題としては、（1）システムの試作と評価、（2）コンテンツの選定と制作、（３）リハビリテーション効果の検討等が残されている。
痴呆患者の笑い表情の測定と解析

1998

　View Summary

　本研究の目的は、痴呆患者の笑い表情の収録を行い、その所見から痴呆の表情に与える影響を検討することである。将来的には、痴呆の非侵襲的な診断などのパラメディカルな応用が期待できる。　笑い表情の収録には、光学結合型の臨場感通信システムを使用した。呈示内容には、ホームビデオで撮影した子供や動物のハプニングや失敗などを、20分程度に編集したものを選択した。痴呆症患者55例を含む66例の入院患者（71.5±23.5才）の表情を測定した。なお、被験者の分類は、長谷川式スコアから判別した。　笑い表情では、眼裂の上下の収縮、口角の左右の伸長という、一貫した距離変化が見られることから、各特徴点間距離を求めた。笑い始めから笑い形成までの被験者の表情を、等間隔でフレーム抽出し、各被験者の笑い始めの特徴点間距離をベースラインとした変化率に変換した。結果から、痴呆が高度になるほど眼裂の収縮が小さく、左右差が大きくなることが分かった。また、前頭葉、頭頂葉に障害のある方が、眼裂の収縮に左右差が大きくなる傾向が認められた。　本実験の結果から、痴呆の高度や障害部位の笑い表情に与える影響は、眼裂の収縮の大きさや左右差において顕著であることが分かった。一方、口角の伸長では、痴呆の高度や障害部位による差異は認められなかった。また、本研究を進める上で、非痴呆患者や軽度の痴呆患者に、映像刺激に対して強い興味を持つ場合が多いことが分かった。今後は、被験者数の増加や分析方法の検討に加えて、映像刺激を用いたリハビリシステムへの表情測定機能の付加といった、応用領域の検討も併せて行いたいと考えている。
