A simple game app using Gabor Patch images. This app is a simple game app aimed at continuously watching Gabor Patch images without getting bored. 〇What is Gabor Patch? It is a kind of striped pattern created by mathematical processing called the Gabor transform. It was developed by Dr. Dennis Gabor, the 1971 Nobel Prize in Physics winner for his invention of holography. Originally, it was thought that looking at Gabor Patch transform images is likely to act on the visual cortex of the brain, and improvements were observed when used to restore eyesight with its adaptability. Looking at Gabor Patch images is said to be effective not only for myopia but also for presbyopia, astigmatism, and hyperopia, due to their effects on the visual cortex of the brain. 〇Game level Each of the three games has three levels (difficulty): Light, General, and Many. Choose your favorite game and your favorite level and challenge yourself so that you can continue playing every day. 〇Gabor Patch Game(Gabor Touch) Tap on the Gabor Patch image with the same pattern to erase it, and a new screen will appear when all are erased. 〇Gabor Scope Game(Gabor Scope) Find and tap the same Gabor Patch image as the image in the top Scope, it will disappear. When all disappear, you can move on to the next level. 〇 Gabor One Game(Gabor One) Display multiple Gabor patch images. I have a single image with no identical images. The game will be cleared by tapping all of the single images. 〇Goal calendar When you clear one side of each game, the number will be counted and displayed on the goal calendar. When you set and clear a daily goal, the number displayed on the goal calendar will turn red. Make it your goal to have all of your favorite games and levels displayed in red every month. 〇Daily calendar You can check the calendar every day when you used this app. It might be a good idea to try and aim for 30 days first.
