Abstract:
Some health problems such as photo sensitive epilepsy, motion sickness, and visual fatigue might be caused by 3D TV. This study evaluated the effects of watching 3D TV in elderly (= 75.39 ± 4.16 years) and young subjects (= 26.25 ± 2.53 years) using electrocardiography (ECG) and a subjective evaluation. As a result, the r-r interval changes of the old showed significant difference (p < 0.05) comparing to that of the younger. This result supports the subjective evaluation; the old felt more visual fatigue and showed stronger desire of stop watching 3D TV. As a conclusion, new guides for making 3D TV contents are needed.
