A system for assessing vestibulo-ocular function includes a motion sensor system adapted to be coupled to a user's head; a data processing system configured to communicate with the motion sensor system to receive the head-motion signals; a visual display system configured to communicate with the data processing system to receive image signals from the data processing system; and a gain control device arranged to be operated by the user and to communicate gain adjustment signals to the data processing system.

Apparatus and method for assessing vestibulo-ocular function

Featured is a wireless scleral search coil that includes one or more passive, resonant coils and in a particular embodiment two orthogonal, passive, resonant coils, where each coil resonates at a different frequency. Each resonant coil includes a coil-capacitor circuit, each circuit being configured to resonant at a different frequency. Such a wireless scleral search coil is disposed within a biocompatible material that is shaped to conform and rest upon the eye of a subject. Also featured are system including such a wireless scleral search coil, one or more transmitter coils, an assembly of one or more receiver coils and a calculating sub-system for processing signal data to obtain eye measurement information.
