Analysis of nystagmus using manual methods is time consuming, reliant on considerable experience and subject to observer bias. Like many electrophysiological responses, nystagmus waveforms are suited to acquisition and analysis by digital computer techniques. Development of computerized eye movement analysis procedures commenced in the late 1960s. Initially programs were mostly researched-based with the data often acquired on FM tape recorders and evaluated on mini-computers. As computer technology evolved and equipment prices decreased, development of portable software and hardware for use in general clinical assessment became feasible. The development of computer programs for the acquisition and analysis of eye movements is described and the limitations of analysis procedures discussed.
使用人工方法分析眼球震颤既耗时,又依赖丰富经验,且易受观察者偏差影响。与许多电生理反应一样,眼球震颤波形适合通过数字计算机技术进行采集和分析。计算机化眼动分析程序的开发始于20世纪60年代末。最初的程序大多基于研究,数据通常在调频磁带录音机上采集,并在小型计算机上进行评估。随着计算机技术的发展和设备价格的下降,开发用于一般临床评估的便携式软件和硬件变得可行。本文描述了用于眼动采集和分析的计算机程序的开发,并讨论了分析程序的局限性。
