Effects of Eye Vergence and Accommodation on Interactions with Content on an AR Magic-lens Display and its Surroundings.

Augmented reality (AR) magic-lens (ML) displays, such as handheld devices, offer a convenient and accessible way to enrich our environment using virtual imagery. Several display technologies, including conventional monocular, less common stereoscopic, and varifocal displays, are currently being used. Vergence and accommodation effects on depth perception, as well as vergence-accommodation conflict, have been studied, where users interact only with the content on the display.
