Perceptual localization of surface normal
Ming Hou · 1999
The objective of this study is to find an effective evaluation method for human perception of surface normal by investigating the influences of surface features on positioning accuracy of a 3D probing tool. Although stereoscopic displays allow enhanced depth perception and object identification, surface contour of objects cannot be easily determined. The research results will not only increase understanding of human visual perception with stereoscopic display, but will also provide insight into human-machine interaction in teleoperation tasks using augmented reality.
