Study of field-of-view overlap for night vision applications

The effect of increasing the field-of-view by partial overlap technique was studied experimentally for static and moving images. A number of factors such as binocular rivalry, suppression, image breakup resolution, and search time were investigated. The experimental results show that the binocular overlap area should be greater than 40% for the display to be comfortable to the eye. Image breakup effects were found to be predominant for static images but negligible for moving images.<
