Article
Full-text available
Driving ability has been shown to be dependent on perceptual-cognitive abilities such as visual attention and speed of processing. There is mixed evidence suggesting that training these abilities may improve aspects of driving performance. This preliminary study investigated the feasibility of training three-dimensional multiple object tracking (3D...

The functional consequences of the visual system lateralization referred to as “eye dominance” remain poorly understood. We previously reported shorter hand reaction times for targets appearing in the contralateral visual hemifield with respect to the dominant eye (DE). Here, we further explore this contralateral bias by studying the influence of l...

Objectives: 3-dimensional multiple object tracking (3D-MOT) and the useful field of view (UFOV) both claim to measure and train cognitive abilities, such as selective and divided attention implicated in driving safety. 3D-MOT is claimed to improve even young adult cognitive ability. If true, one would expect to observe the transfer of 3D-MOT train...

A method and system for monitoring a state of consciousness of an operator in an aircraft cockpit includes at least one image acquisition module for acquiring images of the operator, a detection module for detecting movements of the body of the operator from the images, a determination module for determining a movement feature of the body of the op...
Article
Full-text available
Having an optimal quality of vision as well as adequate cognitive capacities is known to be essential for driving safety. However, the interaction between vision and cognitive mechanisms while driving remains unclear. We hypothesized that, in a context of high cognitive load, reduced visual acuity would have a negative impact on driving behavior, e...
Article
Full-text available
Driving is an everyday task involving a complex interaction between visual and cognitive processes. As such, an increase in the cognitive and/or visual demands can lead to a mental overload which can be detrimental for driving safety. Compiling evidence suggest that eye and head movements are relevant indicators of visuo-cognitive demands and atten...

Patent
The invention relates to a method for determining an adapted ophthalmic device for a wearer, comprising: - acquiring a set of parameters values relating to the wearer, - determining at least a task to be performed by the wearer involving visual exploration, - using a computing system, determining a value of a criterion assessing an efficiency of th...

Visuospatial attention has an inherent asymmetry: the leftward bias called pseudoneglect. In typical line bisection tasks, healthy individuals tend to judge the center of a line leftward of the true center, an effect attributed to the right hemisphere dominance in visuospatial attention. Since it has been shown that information perceived by the dom...
Article
This study introduces a virtual life-sized perceptual-cognitive training paradigm that combines three-dimensional multiple object tracking (3D-MOT) with motor (Experiment 1) or perceptual (Experiment 2) sport decision-making tasks. We sought to assess the impact of training on task performance and determine optimal training conditions for improveme...

The present study introduces a virtual life-sized perceptual-cognitive paradigm combining three dimensional multiple object tracking (3D-MOT) with motor (Experiment 1) or perceptual (Experiment 2) decision-making tasks. The objectives were to assess the impact of training on task performance and to determine the best training conditions for improve...
Article
Full-text available
The present study allows us to pave the way toward a single and common indicator of driving behavior. We investigated performance in several tests known to assess key process of driving fitness such as driving maneuvering, visual and visuocognitive abilities. We propose a methodology to bring together all these measures under a single index we call...
Article
Full-text available
The interhemispheric transfer of information is a fundamental process in the human brain. When a visual stimulus appears eccentrically in one visual-hemifield, it will first activate the contralateral hemisphere but also the ipsilateral one with a slight delay due to the interhemispheric transfer. This interhemispheric transfer of visual informatio...

To investigate the links between mental workload, age and risky driving, a cross-sectional study was conducted on a driving simulator using several established and some novel measures of driving ability and scenarios of varying complexity. A sample of 115 drivers was divided into three age and experience groups: young inexperienced (18–21 years old...

Vehicle driving is a complex task involving multiple cognitive processes such as visuo-spatial skills and attentional processes. Accordingly, simple measures of vehicle manoeuvring might be dependent on the visual attentional load and cannot be sufficient by themselves to faithfully evaluate hazardous driving behavior. This study examined which of...
Article
While car driving simulators are an essential research tool for assessing drivers’ behavior under safe and controlled conditions, gender differences in susceptibility to simulator sickness is a major drawback for the interpretation of the outcomes. The present study assessed the efficacy of a technological (Experiment 1; the use of motion-based dri...

The data presented in this article are related to the research article entitled “The use of transdermal scopolamine to solve methodological issues raised by gender differences in susceptibility to simulator sickness” (R. Chaumillon, T. Romeas, C. Paillard, D. Bernardin, G. Giraudet, J.F. Bouchard, J. Faubert, 2017) [1]. In an outstanding first demo...
Article
Unlike handedness, sighting eye dominance, defined as the eye unconsciously chosen when performing monocular tasks, is very rarely considered in studies investigating cerebral asymmetries. We previously showed that sighting eye dominance has an influence on visually triggered manual action with shorter reaction time (RT) when the stimulus appears i...

Our dominant eye is the one we unconsciously choose when performing a monocular task. Several studies revealed that the stimulation of this dominant eye activates a larger cerebral network than the stimulation of the non-dominant eye. Nevertheless, the consequences of this lateralization of the visual system in sensorimotor tasks has been poorly ex...

Notre œil dominant est celui que nous choisissons inconsciemment lorsque nous avons à réaliser des tâches monoculaires. Dans le domaine de la clinique neuro-ophtalmologique, il est démontré que la dominance oculaire (DO) joue un rôle de premier plan dans bon nombre de pathologies de l’œil. Par ailleurs, la quantification précise de cette DO s’avère...

Introduction.- The dominant eye is defined as the one we unconsciously choose when we have to perform monocular tasks. In the field of clinical neuro-ophthalmology it is well-established that eye dominance plays a key role in several eye diseases. Furthermore, the accurate quantification of eye dominance might be relevant within the framework of so...
