Dynamic detection of binocular disparity using electrooptically tuneable light scattering

Summary form only given. The present paper presents a new technique devoted to studies of the sensitivity of the binocular visual system to luminance and contrast distributions of two monocular half-images. The spatial sensitivity of the binocular disparity and stereopsis were detected maintaining stable monocular background features but under dynamic modulation of the target contrast. Studies using this technique investigated the detectability of the binocular disparity and perceived depth.
