  2. Flicker fusion threshold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_fusion_threshold

    The flicker fusion threshold, also known as critical flicker frequency or flicker fusion rate, is the frequency at which a flickering light appears steady to the average human observer. It is a concept studied in vision science, more specifically in the psychophysics of visual perception. A traditional term for "flicker fusion" is "persistence ...

  3. Frame rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_rate

    Frame rate, most commonly expressed in frames per second or FPS, is typically the frequency (rate) at which consecutive images (frames) are captured or displayed. This definition applies to film and video cameras, computer animation, and motion capture systems. In these contexts, frame rate may be used interchangeably with frame frequency and ...

  4. Event camera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_camera

    An event camera, also known as a neuromorphic camera, [1] silicon retina[2] or dynamic vision sensor, [3] is an imaging sensor that responds to local changes in brightness. Event cameras do not capture images using a shutter as conventional (frame) cameras do. Instead, each pixel inside an event camera operates independently and asynchronously ...

  5. Persistence of vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persistence_of_vision

    Persistence of vision is the optical illusion that occurs when the visual perception of an object does not cease for some time after the rays of light proceeding from it have ceased to enter the eye. [1] The illusion has also been described as "retinal persistence", [2] "persistence of impressions", [3] simply "persistence" and other variations.

  6. Human eye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_eye

    The human eye is a sensory organ in the visual system that reacts to visible light allowing eyesight. Other functions include maintaining the circadian rhythm, and keeping balance. Arizona Eye Model. "A" is accommodation in diopters. The eye can be considered as a living optical device. It is approximately spherical in shape, with its outer ...

  7. Visual acuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_acuity

    In the expression 6/x vision, the numerator (6) is the distance in metres between the subject and the chart and the denominator (x) the distance at which a person with 6/6 acuity would discern the same optotype. Thus, 6/12 means that a person with 6/6 vision would discern the same optotype from 12 metres away (i.e. at twice the distance).

  8. Interlaced video - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interlaced_video

    Interlaced video (also known as interlaced scan) is a technique for doubling the perceived frame rate of a video display without consuming extra bandwidth. The interlaced signal contains two fields of a video frame captured consecutively. This enhances motion perception to the viewer, and reduces flicker by taking advantage of the ...

  9. Motion perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_perception

    Motion perception. The dorsal stream (green) and ventral stream (purple) are shown. They originate from a common source in visual cortex. The dorsal stream is responsible for detection of location and motion. Motion perception is the process of inferring the speed and direction of elements in a scene based on visual, vestibular and ...
