Abstract
This paper presents a novel stereo acuity test that is realized by a software program on a PC with 3D capabilities. The 3D
technology is used to provide two separate images to the two eyes. The test is a classical random dot test, but differently
to other test printed on paper, the images shown to the patient can vary and there is no monocular clue. These features allow
to deliver the test also in groups (instead of individuals) like school classes, and to increase the sensitivity. The system
can be easily used also by not specialized personnel and this may further increase the cost efficiency of the test. Experiments
carried on with a large set of children of age between five and seven years are presented. The obtained results are discussed
through some comparisons between traditional approach and our innovative idea.
