Developing a New Measure of the Useful Field of View
How much can we see, attend to, and process within our field of view? How can multi-tasking affect our field of view? Is there a reliable way to measure and test this?
Physics Problem Solving
How can information in an image help us solve a problem? Can inexperienced problem solvers become more accurate if we cue them on where to look in an image?
Content-Based Image Retrieval
Is there a way to classify images based on their characteristics that will make them easier to find in a search?
Gaze-Contingent Multi-Resolutional Displays
How can we lessen the demands on computer displays? Can we save processing resources by making displays gaze-contingent with high resolution only at the center of vision?
Matching Image Update Rates in GCMRDs to the Temporal Limits of Vision
How fast must the high-resolution center of a gaze-contingent multi-resolutional display be updated? Will perception or performance be affected?
Matching the Drop-Off of Image Resolution in GCMRDs to Human Visual Resolution
What are the limits of human visual resolution? How can we make a gaze-contingent multi-resolutional display match these limits?
The Effects on Perception and Performance When Image Resolution Drops
How does blur in an image affect perception and performance?
