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.

Spasmolytic Effect of Flopropione Does Not Involve Catechol-O- methyltransferase (COMT) Inhibition.

Flopropione (Flo) has been used for gallstone and urolithiasis as a spasmolytic agent almost exclusively in Japan. According to the package insert, its main mechanism is catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) inhibition and anti-serotonergic effect. This is obviously contrary to pharmacological common sense, but it is described that way in pharmacology textbooks and occurs in questions in the National Examination for Pharmacists in Japan.

[Social Allostasis Regulation by Robots].

Social allostasis, the process by which social interactions dynamically regulate psychophysiological states (e.g., emotions), is attracting attention.

Cross-talk elimination for lenslet array near eye display based on eye-gaze tracking.

Lenslet array (LA) near-eye displays (NEDs) are a recent technical development that creates a virtual image in the field of view of one or both eyes. A problem occurs when the user's pupil moves out of the LA-NED eye box (i.e.

Systematic Review of Augmented Reality Training Systems.

Recent augmented reality (AR) advancements have enabled the development of effective training systems, especially in the medical, rehabilitation, and industrial fields. However, it is unclear from the literature what the intrinsic value of AR to training is and how it differs across multiple application fields. In this work, we gathered and reviewed the prototypes and applications geared towards training the intended user's knowledge, skills, and abilities.
