The invention relates to an examination device (1), a method for an automated examination of at least one eye (4, 4′) of a person, a computer program product and the various uses of the examination device (1).

A vision screening device displays visual stimuli and captures image(s) of the eye while the visual stimuli is changing over a period of time. The vision screening device uses the images to determine and monitor refractive error, ambient light level(s), pupil size, and gaze angle as the visual stimuli changes over the time period. Based on the refractive error, a determination of hyperopia and/or presbyopia is made. Based on the gaze angle and/or the pupil size, a confidence metric is determined. Based on the confidence metric and/or the determination, a recommendation for the patient is generated and displayed.

Disclosed is a method for determining an eye parameter of a user of a display device, the eye parameter relating to a dioptric parameter of an ophthalmic lens to be provided to the user, the method including: a display device providing step, during which a binocular display device is provided to the user,—an image display step, during which an image is displayed to the user when using the display device; a display parameter modifying step, during which at least one parameter of the display device is modified so as to modify the virtual display distance of the perceived image, wherein the display parameter modifying step is repeated until image subjective quality of the perceived image is perceived by the user as optimal; and an eye parameter determining step during which an eye parameter is determined based on the parameter of the display device.

A system and/or method for diagnosing a neurologic condition. The system comprises a wearable head orientation sensor, a wearable eye imaging module, and a display with a visual target. The head orientation sensor is responsive to pitch or yaw head orientation information. The eye imaging module is configured for imaging a characteristic of the retina, sclera, cornea, limbus, or pupil to determine an eye position or eye movement. An electronic circuit in the system determines an ocular parameter measurement in response to the head orientation sensor and the eye imaging module. The neurologic condition is diagnosed in response to the ocular parameter measurement.

A system and method are provided for obtaining a pupil response profile for a subject. The method include: obtaining scan data as frames of a pupil response over time prior to, during and after exposure to a flash of a light source; locating a candidate pupil to be measured from the scan data; image processing the scan data to obtain a set of pupil candidate measurements to generate a graph of pupil measurements against time; filtering the graph to produce a final set of pupil measurements forming a pupil response profile. The method may also include: measuring profile parameters from the pupil response profile; and using the profile parameters to determine aspects of the pupil response.

Methods and systems useful for detecting neurological disorders and for measuring general cognitive performance, in particular by measuring eye movements and/or pupil diameter during eye-movement tasks.

An eye tracking system includes at least two cameras configured to register eye images of at least one eye. The system obtains eye images from at least one camera in a subset of the at least two cameras, determines a first pupil parameter based on a first eye image, and determines a second pupil parameter based on a second eye image. The system compares the first and second pupil parameters to obtain a test parameter and checks the test parameter against at least one operation criterion. Responsive to the checking, the system assigns a respective operation state to at least one camera in the subset. The operation state involves one of (A) operating the camera at a high frame rate, (B) operating the camera at a reduced frame rate being lower than high frame rate, (C) the camera being in a standby mode or (D) the camera being powered off.

An automated driving vehicle (200) includes a communication device (220), a biometric information acquirer (240), and an automated driving controller (250). The communication device (220) is configured to transmit biometric information acquired by the biometric information acquirer (240) to an external device and receives a response signal including attribute information for the transmitted biometric information. The automated driving controller (250) is configured to execute automated driving according to route information formed on the basis of the attribute information included in the received response signal.

To dramatically develop a technology for determining a mental and physical state of a subject by observing temporal dilation and contraction of a pupil in response to stimulus light, an eye of the subject is irradiated with stimulus light for 0.5 second under a state in which the pupil of the subject is not adapted to darkness. The pupil of the subject becomes smaller and then larger than the size at the time of irradiation with stimulus light. When the size of the pupil of the subject 5 seconds after the moment of irradiation with the stimulus light is larger than the size of the pupil at the moment of irradiation with stimulus light, a determination system determines that the subject is in a state in which a sympathetic nerve is dominant over a parasympathetic nerve.

An apparatus and method for determining at least one visual refraction feature of a subject by showing a visual stimulus to the subject. The apparatus includes an optical system arranged on an optical path between an eye of the subject and the visual stimulus, the optical system being adapted to provide an optical power that is continuously variable as a function of time (t), a control unit for driving the optical power of the optical system and an input device adapted for recording a response of the subject relative to a sharpness of the visual stimulus seen through the optical system, the control unit being adapted to adjust a speed of variation of the optical power (S) as a function of the response recorded.
