He's right that changing your depth focus is more taxing, but I wonder what's healthiest for the eyes? Maybe it would be good to for the eyes to change focus depth while wearing VR headsets? If I stare at my monitor too long without breaks my eyes definitely get lethargic while trying to focus into the distance. (General tip: every 20 minutes stare at something at least 20 feet away for 20 seconds.)
- pugworthy 7y agoCurved monitors are basically meeting the same need - to maintain the same focal depth as one looks side to side, shifting between windows, applications, etc. I did find a few papers with a quick search that covers the topic for monitors. I would assume there is some carryover of any kind of finding about curved monitor ergonomics to the cylindrical view idea in VR.
