Abstract

The present disclosure provides a gaming system including an application that can be implemented using a dynamic testing game, wherein the system does not require glasses, goggles, or any other headwear. The system enables a test subject to be screened and treated for vision dysfunctions while engaging with a dynamic video game.

Claims (30)

1. A system for determining visual dysfunction of a test subject, the system comprising:

a screen configured to display image data, wherein each image data includes a first image data component viewable from a first angle and a second image data component viewable from a second angle, wherein the first image data component is different than the second image data component;

a controller; and

a memory coupled to the controller, wherein the memory is configured to store program instructions executable by the controller;

wherein in response to executing the program instructions, the controller is configured to:

display image data on the screen such that, when the test subject holds the screen, the first image data component is only viewable by a right eye of the test subject while the second image data component is only viewable by a left eye of the test subject,

receive user input from the test subject in response to the displayed image data presented on the screen, and

determine vision testing results based on the user input from the test subject, wherein the vision testing results include an acuity score.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to obtain tracked movement data, via an eye tracker in communication with the controller, for at least one eye of the test subject to determine an eye position in three dimensions without requiring the test subject to wear any tracking equipment, wherein the vision testing results are based on the tracked movement data.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the image is three-dimensional.

4. The system of claim 3 , wherein the three-dimensional image can only be seen by the test subject with adequate visual acuity.

5. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a device including the screen, the controller, and an eye tracker.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the vision testing results include a stereopsis score.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the vision testing results include a binocularity score.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the vision testing results include a monocular color vision score.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the vision testing results include a monocular visual acuity score.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to present the image data in a format of an interactive video game.

11. A system for determining visual dysfunction of a test subject, the system comprising:

a screen configured to display image data, wherein each image data includes a first image data component viewable from a first angle and a second image data component viewable from a second angle, wherein the first image data component is different than the second image data component;

a controller; and

a memory coupled to the controller, wherein the memory is configured to store program instructions executable by the controller;

wherein in response to executing the program instructions, the controller is configured to:

display image data on the screen such that, when the test subject holds the screen, the first image data component is only viewable by a right eye of the test subject while the second image data component is only viewable by a left eye of the test subject,

receive acuity user input from the test subject in response to the image presented on the screen, wherein the user input from the test subject includes one of a response time, color selection data, and binocularity selection data,

determine vision testing results based on the user input from the test subject, wherein the vision testing results include one of an acuity score, a color score, and a binocularity score based on the one of the response time, the color selection data, and the binocularity selection data of the user input.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the image is three-dimensional.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the three-dimensional image can only be seen by the test subject with adequate visual acuity.

14. The system of claim 11 , further comprising a device including the screen, the controller, and an eye tracker.

15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the vision testing results include a stereopsis score.

16. The system of claim 11 , wherein the vision testing results include a monocular visual acuity score.
