  2. Chubb illusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chubb_illusion

    The Chubb illusion is similar to another visual illusion, the contrast effect.The contrast effect is an illusion in which the perceived brightness or luminance of an identical central visual target form on a larger uniform background varies to the test subject depending on the ratio of the central form's luminance to that of its background.

  3. Williams process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Williams_process

    The Williams process relies on the properties of film. Firstly, the actors were filmed in front of a black background—although white or blue backgrounds were used later—and that was printed on high contrast film several times until a copy known as the holdout matte was achieved, which showed the black silhouette of the actors over a completely white background.

  4. Histogram equalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histogram_equalization

    This allows for areas of lower local contrast to gain a higher contrast. Histogram equalization accomplishes this by effectively spreading out the highly populated intensity values which are used to degrade image contrast. The method is useful in images with backgrounds and foregrounds that are both bright or both dark. In particular, the ...

  5. Contrast (vision) - Wikipedia

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

    Contrast is the difference in luminance or color that makes an object (or its representation in an image or display) visible against a background of different luminance or color. [1] The human visual system is more sensitive to contrast than to absolute luminance; thus, we can perceive the world similarly despite significant changes in ...

  6. Reverse-contrast typefaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse-contrast_typefaces

    The contrast has been increased and the axis of the contrast made more purely vertical. A conventional slab-serif typeface, Rockwell. [c] The serifs have been thickened and the contrast is minimal. Starting in the seventeenth century, typefounders developed what are now called transitional and then "modern" or Didone types. These typefaces had ...

  7. Tone mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tone_mapping

    Tone mapped high-dynamic-range (HDR) image of St. Kentigerns Roman Catholic Church in Blackpool, Lancashire, England, UK. Tone mapping is a technique used in image processing and computer graphics to map one set of colors to another to approximate the appearance of high-dynamic-range (HDR) images in a medium that has a more limited dynamic range.

  8. Ambiguous image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambiguous_image

    In ambiguous images, detecting edges still seems natural to the person perceiving the image. However, the brain undergoes deeper processing to resolve the ambiguity. For example, consider an image that involves an opposite change in magnitude of luminance between the object and the background (e.g.

  9. Chromostereopsis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromostereopsis

    Blue–red contrast demonstrating depth perception effects 3 Layers of depths "Rivers, Valleys & Mountains". Chromostereopsis is a visual illusion whereby the impression of depth is conveyed in two-dimensional color images, usually of red–blue or red–green colors, but can also be perceived with red–grey or blue–grey images.
