An analysis of visual perception related to the | |
underwater environment is presented, followed by a | |
discussion of 3-dimensional space perception, and the | |
absolute and relative cues employed by the operator | |
during task performance. Using a category 1 task, | |
experiment 1 employed highly practiced subjects to reduce | |
the effects of learning. Mono and stereo TV performance | |
was measured under three levels of visibility degradation | |
(simulated by contrast reduction). As predicted, stereo | |
was superior to mono under all conditions tested. | |
Performance using both mono and stereo displays were both | |
affected by degraded visibility. Experiment 2 was | |
conducted with naive subjects using an experimental | |
design which enabled an assessment of the degree of | |
learning under operator testing conditions. We | |
hypothesized that the category 1 task would show | |
significantly less advantage for stereo, but that the | |
effects of degraded visibility would continue to occur. | |
The results are consistent with our interpretation. In | |
experiment 3, the more visually complex category 2 task | |
was employed. The design of the experiment was similar to | |
experiment 2 so that evidence for learning could be | |
assessed under these different conditions. Predictions | |
concerning the degree of performance advantage for stereo | |
vs mono displays were supported. This advantage was | |
observed to increase with decreasing visibility, a | |
finding which is consistent with our earlier predictions. | |
