It is clear that optic flow is useful to guide an observer's movement and that binocular disparity contributes too. Both cues are important in recovering scene structure. What is less clear is how the information might be useful after a few seconds, when the observer has moved to a new vantage point and the egocentric frame in which the information was gathered is no longer applicable.

Prof. Andrew Glennerster studied medicine at Cambridge before working briefly with Michael Morgan at UCL then doing a DPhil and an EU-funded postdoc with Brian Rogers on binocular stereopsis (1989 - 1994). He held an MRC Career Development Award (1994 - 1998) with Andrew Parker in Physiology at Oxford including a year with Suzanne McKee in Smith-Kettlewel, San Francisco. He continued work with Andrew Parker on a Royal Society University Research Fellowship (1999 - 2007) which allowed him to set up a virtual reality laboratory to study 3D perception in moving observer, funded for 12 years by the Wellcome Trust. He moved to Psychology in Reading in 2005, first as a Reader and now as a Professor, where the lab is now funded by EPSRC.

Senior Consulting Scientist John O. Merritt is an internationally recognized expert in the operational use of stereoscopic 3D displays and the application of research and development in sensory and perceptual science to remote-presence systems. He brings over 30 years of experience and extensive practical and theoretical knowledge of spatial perception and stereoscopic video applications to every project. Merritt’s early work in overhead reconnaissance as a Naval Air Intelligence Officer, combined with his years of experience as a 3D-display design consultant, make him uniquely qualified to assess the strengths and weaknesses of advanced 3D imaging systems. Merritt has extensive experience comparing task performance in 3D vs. 2D evaluation studies. Since completing his graduate work in sensory and perceptual psychology at Harvard University, he has provided vision research and human factors engineering consulting services to a broad range of industrial and government clients. As a senior research scientist at Perceptronics in Woodland Hills, CA, he headed a number of R&D projects related to vision and visual-simulator displays.
