    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_movement_in_reading

    Eye tracking device is a tool created to help measure eye and head movements. The first devices for tracking eye movement took two main forms: those that relied on a mechanical connection between participant and recording instrument, and those in which light or some other form of electromagnetic energy was directed at the participant's eyes and its reflection measured and recorded.

    both rapidly and quickly end with the adverbial ending -ly. Although they end with the same sound, they don't rhyme because the stressed syllable on each word (RA-pid-ly and QUICK-ly) has a different sound. [4] However, use of this device still ties words together in a sort of rhyme or echo relationship, even in prose passages:

    The visual system is the physiological basis of visual perception (the ability to detect and process light).The system detects, transduces and interprets information concerning light within the visible range to construct an image and build a mental model of the surrounding environment.

  5. Pupillary reflex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pupillary_reflex

    Although the pupillary response, in which the pupil dilates or constricts due to light is not usually called a "reflex", it is still usually considered a part of this topic. Adjustment to close-range vision is known as "the near response", while relaxation of the ciliary muscle to view distant objects is known as the "far response".

    The human eye can detect a luminance from 10 −6 cd/m 2, or one millionth (0.000001) of a candela per square meter to 10 8 cd/m 2 or one hundred million (100,000,000) candelas per square meter. [ 19 ] [ 20 ] [ 21 ] (that is it has a range of 10 14 , or one hundred trillion 100,000,000,000,000, about 46.5 f-stops).

    Instead Hering's law predicts that because both eyes must move by equal amounts, a combination of conjunctive and disjunctive eye movements is required to refoveate the target point. Yarbus [ 5 ] showed experimentally that binocular eyes movements are indeed composed mostly of combinations of saccades and vergence.
