Popis: Using a wearable electroencephalogram (EEG) device, this paper introduces a novel method of quantifying and understanding the visual acuity of the human eye with the steady-state visually evoked potential (SSVEP) technique. This method gives users easy access to self-track and to monitor their eye health. The study focuses on how varying the SSVEP stimulus frequency and duration affect the overall representation of a person’s visual perception. The study proposes two methods for this visual representation. The first method is a hardware system that utilizes long-exposure photography to augment reality and collocate the visual map onto the plane of interest. The second is a software implementation that captures the visual field at a set distance. A three-dimensional mapping is created by gathering software-defined visual maps at various set distances. Preliminary results show that these methods can gain some insight into the user’s central vision, peripheral vision, and depth perception.
