  2. Contrast (vision) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_(vision)

    Contrast sensitivity is typically expressed as the reciprocal of the threshold contrast for detection of a given pattern (i.e., 1 ÷ contrast threshold). [16] Using the results of a contrast sensitivity exam, a contrast sensitivity curve can be plotted, with spatial frequency on the horizontal, and contrast threshold on the vertical axis.

  3. Binocular summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binocular_summation

    By combining the information received in each eye, binocular summation can improve visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, flicker perception, and brightness perception. [1] Though binocular summation generally enhances binocular vision, it can worsen binocular vision relative to monocular vision under certain conditions.

  4. Adaptive histogram equalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_histogram...

    Adaptive histogram equalization (AHE) is a computer image processing technique used to improve contrast in images. It differs from ordinary histogram equalization in the respect that the adaptive method computes several histograms, each corresponding to a distinct section of the image, and uses them to redistribute the lightness values of the image.

  5. Photoresist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoresist

    Contrast Contrast is the difference from exposed portion to unexposed portion. The higher the contrast is, the more obvious the difference between exposed and unexposed portions would be. Sensitivity Sensitivity is the minimum energy that is required to generate a well-defined feature in the photoresist on the substrate, measured in mJ/cm 2 ...

  6. Adaptation (eye) - Wikipedia

    This is due to cones obtaining more sensitivity when first entering the dark for the first five minutes but the rods taking over after five or more minutes. [3] Cone cells are able to regain maximum retinal sensitivity in 9–10 minutes of darkness whereas rods require 30–45 minutes to do so. [4]

  7. MRI contrast agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRI_contrast_agent

    MRI contrast agents are contrast agents used to improve the visibility of internal body structures in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). [1] The most commonly used compounds for contrast enhancement are gadolinium -based contrast agents (GBCAs).

  9. Anti-reflective coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-reflective_coating

    Eliminating reflections allows slightly more light to pass through, producing a slight increase in contrast and visual acuity. Antireflective ophthalmic lenses should not be confused with polarized lenses , which are found only in sunglasses and decrease (by absorption) the visible glare of sun reflected off surfaces such as sand, water, and roads.
