According to the Xinhua News Agency to see 3D movies to enjoy the novel visual experience, University of London, Goldsmith University, a study shows that this also helps to enhance brainpower.

The researchers recruited more than 100 volunteers, so that they were to watch the ordinary version and 3D version of the Disney film "Super Marine", and before and after the volunteers to do brain training examination questions, test memory, response speed and cognitive ability. The researchers also recorded their brain activity with the help of the instrument.

Research leader Patrick Fagan, a neuroscientist, said the results showed that volunteers were more active when they watched 3D movies, indicating that they could exercise and improve the short-term functioning of the brain, similar in function to brain training; , The brain's average level of attention increased by 7%, cognitive capacity increased by an average of 23%, the viewer's response rate increased by 11%.

However, in a study conducted by the University of Utah, researchers used a variety of measurements to monitor the 408 physiological responses of 2D and 3D movies to the audience, including palmar sweating, respiratory rate, and heart rate response. , Whether it is comedy, tragedy, horror film or thriller, the two versions will not let the audience have much difference in the physiological response.
