METHOD FOR ESTIMATING THE ACCURACY OF PERCEPTION OF DISTANCE BY A PERSON Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC A61B3/00 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine and sports. On the horizontal surface, two objects are formed, controlled by the computer, the subject is placed in the middle of the line passing through the centers of the objects. Programmatically for a given time, unpredictable for the subject change the direction or speed of moving objects, the subject evaluates the movement of objects and changes its position so that it remains in the middle of the line passing through the centers of objects. Objects included in the hardware and software complex are two radio-controlled balls of the same or different color and given a different or equal value. In this case, the hardware and software complex, monitoring the location of the subject, always warns him with a conditional sound signal about the subject's exit from the line passing through the centers of the radio-controlled balloons. Programmatically for a given time, unpredictable for the subject, change the direction or speed of movement of the balls. Subject evaluates the movements of radio-controlled balls, changes his position in such a way as to remain in the middle of the line passing through the centers of the balls. Movements of the balls and the subject are removed with a video camera located at a given height above the horizontal surface, the video image is transferred to the computer. Computer from the moment of changing the direction or speed of moving the balls periodically with a predetermined period calculates the position of the midpoint of the line passing through the centers of the balls and the center of the position of the subject, the distance between the center of the line passing through the centers of the balls, and the center of the position of the subject, the arithmetic mean of the calculated distances, and the value of the arithmetic mean value of the accuracy of the perception of distance by a person.

EFFECT: method allows to improve the efficiency of estimating the accuracy of perception of the distance of a person based on the results of its movement through the use of a software and hardware complex and radio-controlled balloons.
