Abstract

We desire to have a joint transform correlator track features in the image of a human retina. Previous binarized digital methods indicated unacceptable limitations in tracking through torsion motions of the eye. To create an extended range of response to eyeball rotation we tried several methods of processing the reference image. We compared laboratory measurements with digital simulations. Based on small statistics and our noiseless models, the results disagree; the digital method has less range, and the optical method has sufficient range (+/- 5 degree(s)) for our purpose.
