    The following was recently posted to sci.virtual-worlds news group. 
    Thought it might be of interest to some folks.

  Dear ALL,
 
  The following journal on 3D stereoscopic vision is useful for
  you, I am sure.
 
  maybe you know that The journal of Ergonomics, 
  which is an international journal of the
  official publication of the ergonomics society and international
  ergonomics association on research and practice in human factors and
  ergonomics is published by Taylar & Francis London.
 
   The last vol.39-11 is the special issue on human factors in
  stereoscopic 3D displays.
  there are contributed 13 papers( most works were done in japan).
 
   my paper on " the binocular fusion on human vision on
  stereoscopic displays - field of view and environment effects" is
  also included to it.
 
   "Summary: This paper points out that fusional limits of binocular
  stereoscopic viewing are an important factor, not only determining the
  reproduction range of stereoscopic images, but also the conformity
  between the stereoscopic disparity and stereoscopic vision.
  Experimental result showed that fusional limits increase in proportion
  to the field of view angle, and that they are affected not only the
  size of the viewing target but also by the effects they the
  environment has on the target. These findings explain the differences
  between binocular vision in real space and binocular vision in a
  stereoscopic display.  Finally the conditions under which observers
  are able to view images of stereoscopic displays without excessive
  visual strain are discussed."
 
  I will be happy to hope that you will read it and send back any comment
  about it to me.
 
  if you could not get the journal, let me know to send a reprint of my
  paper to you( postal-mail address).
