ADJUSTING DISPLAY SETTINGS OF A HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY

Apparatuses, methods, systems, and program products are disclosed for adjusting display settings of a head-mounted display. An apparatus includes a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The code is executable by the processor to receive sensor data from one or more sensors operably connected to a head mounted display (HMD) unit while a user wears the HMD unit. The code is executable by the processor to determine a visual acuity of the user based on the sensor data. The code is executable by the processor to adjust one or more display settings of the HMD unit based on the determined visual acuity for the user. The one or more display settings may be adjusted to correct for impairments in the user's visual acuity.

Similarity evaluation method using brain waves, evaluation device, evaluation system, and program

Provided are a method, a device, a system, and a program for evaluating similarity of brain activity with respect to an object to be evaluated, using data obtained by a simple measurement of brain waves. Brain wave data related to cognitive processing with respect to a plurality of sensory stimuli are dimensionally compressed, and a distribution of the object to be evaluated is displayed on a two-dimensional plane or three-dimensionally. In this way, similarity of brain information with respect to the plurality of sensory stimuli is evaluated, and the similarity is visualized. The brain wave data related to the cognitive processing include brain wave data upon selection of a stimulus as a target, and brain wave data caused by a non-target stimulus event.
