TABLE 3: Geometric Binocular Vergence at Different Eccentricities in the HMD Vergence Angle Between Visual Axes in HMD Eccentricity Lateral Orientation Vertical Orientation 0 [degrees] 0.573 [degrees] 0.573 [degrees] 5 [degrees] 0.568 [degrees] 0.571 [degrees] 10 [degrees] 0.556 [degrees] 0.564 [degrees] 15 [degrees] 0.535 [degrees] 0.553 [degrees] With the vertical target orientations there was an unexpected finding - that the vergence measured for downward movements was approximately twice the magnitude of the reciprocal movement - and this was observed in all vertically oriented gaze shifts in both displays.
