Stop motion goggle: augmented visual perception by subtraction method using high speed liquid crystal

Abstract

Stop Motion Goggle (SMG) expands visual perception by allowing users to perceive visual information selectively through a high speed shutter. In this system, the user can easily observe not only periodic rotational motion such as rotating fans or wheels, but also random motion like bouncing balls. In this research, we developed SMG and evaluated the effect of SMG on visual perception of high speed moving objects. Furthermore this paper describes users' behaviors under the expanded visual experience.
