To objectively quantify the level of visual interference induced by lasers, we developed a biomimetic optical system designed to emulate human vision. This system is based on an optical model of the eye and synthetic imaging principles, allowing it to generate biomimetic optical images that closely mimic human visual perception. Upon exposure to a 532 nm laser, biomimetic optical images were captured under various ambient lighting conditions. By employing a contrast threshold model for human visual target detection and grayscale hierarchy analysis, we devised an evaluation model to quantify the levels of laser-induced visual interference. The bionic images obtained from our experiments, in conjunction with the constructed model, enabled us to assess the degree of laser-induced visual interference. Our results indicate that this system can effectively substitute the human eye when testing laser imaging effects, with the generated bionic images achieving up to 90% concordance with human vision. The proposed evaluation model facilitates the quantitative analysis of laser-induced visual impairment. This apparatus and evaluation model hold significant promise for the precise quantification of laser-induced visual interference levels.
