Dr. Martin S. Banks, professor of optometry and vision science and affiliate professor of psychology and bioengineering at University of California (UC), Berkeley, will be honored this weekend by the Society for Information Display (SID) for his research related to vision and information displays.
Banks will receive the Otto Schade Prize, which is awarded to an outstanding scientific or technical achievement in, or contribution to, the advancement of functional performance and/or image quality of information displays. He is reportedly being honored for his research into the causes of viewer discomfort and misperceptions in depth and motion and the creation of technology to mitigate these effects.
