Abstract

The paper presents a new and efficient method to evaluate both the visual field and acuity and body equilibrium for children aged between 4 and 7 years, in order to detect and correct any problems at an age when it can be done very effectively yet. The method invokes testing the children by inducing an imbalance, different degree, while he has to react to different stimuli. The originality of the research refers to the software interface for generating light stimuli as virtual LEDs and for the children's reaction evaluation, associated with the way in which the different degrees of destabilization can be induced. This method proved to be an efficient one and it could be successfully applied in the future in scholar or kindergarten screening activities.
