ABSTRACT
Analysis of human eye pupil reactivity is a very valuable diagnostic method used mainly for evaluation of the condition of the autonomic nervous system and the visual system. The paper presents an experimental pupillometer built in the Institute of Physics of the Wroclaw University of Technology. The apparatus makes it possible to record and analyze pupillary light reflex and spontaneous changes in the pupil diameter during a session in the dark. The detector system used in the pupillometer allows us to record the pupil diameter at a rate of 90 Hz with a linear accuracy of 0.008 mm. In this paper, the proposed detection method, the principle of operation and calibration of the apparatus and the possibilities of the measurement system are presented.
