  2. Chromatic adaptation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromatic_adaptation

    Chromatic adaptation is the human visual system’s ability to adjust to changes in illumination in order to preserve the appearance of object colors. It is responsible for the stable appearance of object colors despite the wide variation of light which might be reflected from an object and observed by our eyes.

  3. Holmgren's wool test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holmgren's_wool_test

    In Holmgren's wool test, the patient is asked to match coloured skeins of yarn to the samples in the box. [6] [7] At first, the patient is asked to select from the 40 skeins, 10 skeins that best match the light green master A. [2] From the remaining 30 skeins, the patient is then asked to select the 5 skeins that best match the red master C. [2] Lastly, the patient is asked to select 5 skeins ...

  4. Color vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_vision

    Thus color information is mostly taken in at the fovea. Humans have poor color perception in their peripheral vision, and much of the color we see in our periphery may be filled in by what our brains expect to be there on the basis of context and memories. However, our accuracy of color perception in the periphery increases with the size of ...

  5. Bevil Conway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bevil_Conway

    Conway's research originally set out to explore the principle of double opponency in the primate visual system, showing (in 2001 [5] and 2006 [6]) that color cells in the first stage of cortical processing (V1) compute local ratios of cone activity, making them both color-opponent (red-green and blue-yellow) and spatially opponent, pinning them down as the likely basis for color constancy and ...

  6. Color appearance model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_appearance_model

    A uniform color space (UCS) is a color model that seeks to make the color-making attributes perceptually uniform, i.e. identical spatial distance between two colors equals identical amount of perceived color difference. A CAM under a fixed viewing condition results in a UCS; a UCS with a modeling of variable viewing conditions results in a CAM.

  7. Unique hues - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unique_hues

    Unique hues are a useful tool in measuring intra-subject variability in color perception. [24] Neitz et al (2002) show that unique yellow shifts towards longer wavelengths following multi-day adaptation to red environments, and is also shifted for deuteranomalous colorblind observers. [ 20 ]

  8. Sheepskin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheepskin

    Sheepskin is used to produce sheepskin leather products [2] and soft wool-lined clothing or coverings, including gloves, hats, slippers, footstools, automotive seat covers, baby and knee rugs and pelts. Sheepskin numnahs, saddle pads, saddle seat covers, sheepskin horse boots, tack linings and girth tubes are also made and used in equestrianism ...

  9. Opponent process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opponent_process

    Unique hues can differ between individuals and are often used in psychophysical research to measure variations in color perception due to color-vision deficiencies or color adaptation. [4] While there is considerable inter-subject variability when defining unique hues experimentally, [ 3 ] an individual's unique hues are very consistent, to ...
