PS - I am fowarding this reply to someone who does have an
eyetracker to see if this procedure is possible. I think it is an
interesting idea.
Response from my colleague-
Hi all,
First, I agree that everyone needs an eye tracker. Second,
with an eye tracker it would be possible to either 1) blank the
scene whenever gaze shifted outside of some specified range, or
2) shift the scene with changes in eye position (assuming that
the scene was not a full-screen view). Option 1 would be much
easier and could be achieved much more rapidly; Option 2 would be
a bit clunkier and would likely have a limited range in terms of
allowable gaze shifts.

Hello, TIPSters --
So, today in cognitive we were talking about linguistic
capacity and split brain and all that sort of stuff, and one
student wondered whether or not she'd be able to blacken half
of her contact lenses, say, on the right sides (she's
astigmatic and has weighted lenses) and wander around with
only her right hemisphere making (initial, pre-callosal)
contact with the world.
I'm skeptical that she'd notice much, given the size of the
connection between the hemispheres, but did promise that I'd
try to find out if anyone had ever done such a thing, and if
so, what would be a good way to blacken a contact lens that
wouldn't also risk eye damage (we discussed and immediately
rejected Sharpies).
Anyone have thoughts on this?
TIA,
m
