Stereoscopic Depth Movement: Two Eyes Less Sensitive than One

C. William Tyler 1

1 Department of Psychology, Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts 02115

Visual sensitivity to stimuli with sinusoidal movement was examined under a number of conditions of binocular stimulation. Sensitivity to stereoscopic movement in depth was reduced in comparison to that for monocular movement. The reduced sensitivity appeared to be due to the presence of stereoscopic depth movement, as opposed to stereoscopic stimulation, binocular movement, or fusion of the images.
