Eyes can See What Mind Can’t see

A 55 year old Caucasian female with a history of Iron deficiency anemia with hemoglobin of 6.1 gm/dl was admitted from her hematologist office for a Venofer infusion. She had profound confusion on presentation. Physical examination was pertinent for fever of 101οF, and laboratory data pertinent for elevated blood sugars of 590 mg/dl, leukocytosis of 10.3 K/UL with bandemia of 13%, elevated AST 170 U/L, ALT 184 U/L, and normal alkaline phosphate and total bilirubin. She was subsequently found to have Strep. Viridian bacteremia and CT scan of Chestabdomen- pelvis revealed multiple hepatosplenic masses consistent with malignancy or abscesses. Liver biopsy showed benign liver cells with a background of acute and chronic inflammatory cells and abscess (*image shown). She was treated with long term course of Ceftriaxone via PICC line.

Impaired motion detection preceding smooth eye movements.

Experiments have been carried out that suggest that the observed psychophysical impairment of motion detection in man may not occur equally over the entire visual field. Instead, if impaired motion detection is a consequence of redirection of 'attention' to another portion of the visual field, then movement detection may be impaired the most in the fovea and the least in the region of the subsequent target.

Special report - UV: Eye on the moon.

The Lunar Surface Ultraviolet Spectrographic Camera, the primary objective of which was to determine the location and extent of gaseous material (principally hydrogen) in preselected regions of the celestial sphere is described. Camera capability included acquisition of direct imagery and spectroscopy of the same target. The optical section made use of a Schmidt reflector component. The procedure for making photographic records is outlined.

Optokinetic stimulation of an immobilized eye in the monkey.

Quantitative investigation of the optokinetic nystagmus effect in rhesus monkeys. The results obtained are shown to parallel those found for the rabbit by Ter Braak (1936). Quantitative findings pertaining to the ratio between slow velocity of nystagmus and stimulus speed as a power function of pattern motion velocity and to other parameters are presented graphically and discussed.

Development of the elevation drive assembly for orbiting solar observatory I (EYE)

The requirements for pointing accuracy, friction, and power for the elevation drive assembly of an orbiting space observatory are discussed briefly. A description of the components making up the assembly is presented. Special features requiring development testing prior to unit fabrication are more fully described together with a review of the test programs conducted and results obtained.

An analysis of the circuitry of the visual pathway of the lateral eye of limullus

The methodology is discussed for three-dimensional analysis of the nervous system on the basis of electron micrographs of serial sections. An analysis is presented of a part of the circuitry of the rabbit retina. In addition, some exploratory work is reported with respect to the visual cortex of the cat brain. A proper technique for preservation of the visual cortex was worked out and a technique to localize microelectrode tips in the tissue in connection with electron microscopy was partially worked out.

Two dimensional eye tracking: Sampling rate of forcing function

A study was conducted to determine the minimum update rate of a forcing function display required for the operator to approximate the tracking performance obtained on a continuous display. In this study, frequency analysis was used to determine whether there was an associated change in the transfer function characteristics of the operator. It was expected that as the forcing function display update rate was reduced, from 120 to 15 samples per second, the operator's response to the high frequency components of the forcing function would show a decrease in gain, an increase in phase lag, and a decrease in coherence.

The robot's eyes - Stereo vision system for automated scene analysis

Attention is given to the robot stereo vision system which maintains the image produced by solid-state detector television cameras in a dynamic random access memory called RAPID. The imaging hardware consists of sensors (two solid-state image arrays using a charge injection technique), a video-rate analog-to-digital converter, the RAPID memory, and various types of computer-controlled displays, and preprocessing equipment (for reflexive actions, processing aids, and object detection). The software is aimed at locating objects and transversibility. An object-tracking algorithm is discussed and it is noted that tracking speed is in the 50-75 pixels/s range.
