A comparison between a typical normalized M cone's spectral sensitivity and the CIE 1931 luminosity function for a standard observer in photopic vision. In the CIE 1931 model, Y is the luminance, Z is quasi-equal to blue (of CIE RGB), and X is a mix of the three CIE RGB curves chosen to be nonnegative (see § Definition of the CIE XYZ color space).
Dark adaptation – the participants were completely dark adapted (a process lasting forty minutes) to optimise their visual sensitivity. Location – the stimulus was presented to an area of the right eye where there is a high density of rod cells , 20 degrees to the left of the point of focus (i.e. 20 degrees to the right of the fovea ).
Photopic relative brightness sensitivity of the human visual system as a function of wavelength (luminosity function) The visible light spectrum ranges from about 380 to 740 nanometers. Spectral colors (colors that are produced by a narrow band of wavelengths) such as red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and violet can be found in this range ...
The random sequences are presented to the subject several times. The strength of the stimulus, perceived in more than half of the presentations, will be taken as the threshold. Adaptive method: Stimulation starts with a surely supra-threshold stimulus; then further stimuli are given with an intensity decreased in previously-defined steps.
The Stiles–Crawford Effect is quantified as a function of distance (d) away from the center of the pupil using the following equation: () =,where η is the relative luminance efficiency, and d is defined as positive on the temporal side of the pupil and negative on the nasal side of the pupil.
A sensitivity guarantees that the distance from the critical point to the Nyquist curve is always greater than and the Nyquist curve of the loop transfer function is always outside a circle around the critical point + with the radius , known as the sensitivity circle.
If the stimulus is not white noise, but instead has non-zero correlation across space or time, the standard STA provides a biased estimate of the linear receptive field. [5] It may therefore be appropriate to whiten the STA by the inverse of the stimulus covariance matrix. This resolves the spatial dependency issue, however we still assume the ...
The minimum brightness required for the detection of a light stimulus is called the "threshold" sensitivity level of that location. [3] This procedure is then repeated at several other locations, until the entire visual field is tested. [3] Threshold static perimetry is generally done using automated equipment.
