Abstract:
A system or method for measuring human ocular performance can be implemented using an eye sensor, a head orientation sensor, and an electronic circuit. The device is configured for measuring vestibulo-ocular reflex, pupillometry, saccades, visual pursuit tracking, vergence, eyelid closure, dynamic visual acuity, retinal image stability, foveal fixation stability, focused position of the eyes or visual fixation of the eyes at any given moment and nystagmus. The eye sensor comprises a video camera that senses vertical movement and horizontal movement of at least one eye. The head orientation sensor senses pitch and yaw in the range of frequencies between 0.01 Hertz and 15 Hertz. The system is implemented as part of a faceguard.

Claim (Index 20):
A method for measuring human ocular performance comprising the steps of:\n establishing a faceguard that comprises:\n a plurality of structural members and at least one aperture configured for allowing human vision through the faceguard; \n an eye sensor comprising a video camera configured for sensing eye movement information selected from the group of:\n horizontal eye movement; \n vertical eye movement; \n pupillometry; and \n eyelid movement; \n \n a head orientation sensor configured for sensing a head movement selected from the group of pitch and yaw of a person's head wherein pitch represents a rotation about a first axis representing up and down movement of the person's face when the rear of the person's head moves in the opposite direction and yaw represents horizontal movement of the face when looked at from the front about a second axis substantially aligned with the spine and perpendicular to the first axis; and \n an electronic circuit; and \n using the electronic circuit to:\n receive eye movement information from the eye sensor; \n receive head movement information from the head orientation sensor; and \n generate a gain signal and a phase signal using the eye movement information, and the head movement information; and \n measure an ocular performance characteristic selected from the group of:\n vestibulo-ocular reflex; \n ocular saccades; \n pupillometry; \n pursuit tracking during visual pursuit; \n vergence; \n eye closure; \n focused position of the eyes; \n dynamic visual acuity; \n kinetic visual acuity; \n retinal image stability; \n foveal fixation stability; and \n nystagmus.
