Abstract:In this work, we developed a wearable, head-mounted device that automatically calculates the precise Relative Afferent Pupillary Defect (RAPD) value of a patient. The device consists of two RGB LEDs, two infrared cameras, and one microcontroller. In the RAPD test, the parameters like LED on-off durations, brightness level, and color of the light can be controlled by the user. Upon data acquisition, a computational unit processes the data, calculates the RAPD score and visualizes the test results with a user-friendly interface.Multiprocessing methods used on GUI to optimize the processing pipeline. We have shown that our head-worn instrument is easy to use, fast, and suitable for early-diagnostics and screening purposes for various neurological conditions such as RAPD, glaucoma, asymmetric glaucoma, and anisocoria.
Abstract:We developed a prototype device for dynamic gaze and accommodation measurements based on 4 Purkinje reflections (PR) suitable for use in AR and ophthalmology applications. PR1&2 and PR3&4 are used for accurate gaze and accommodation measurements, respectively. Our eye model was developed in ZEMAX and matches the experiments well. Our model predicts the accommodation from 4 diopters to 1 diopter with better than 0.25D accuracy. We performed repeatability tests and obtained accurate gaze and accommodation estimations from subjects. We are generating a large synthetic data set using physically accurate models and machine learning.
