The flicker fusion threshold, also known as critical flicker frequency or flicker fusion rate, is the frequency at which a flickering light appears steady to the average human observer. It is a concept studied in vision science, more specifically in the psychophysics of visual perception. A traditional term for "flicker fusion" is "persistence ...
Kirlian photograph of two coins. Kirlian photography is a collection of photographic techniques used to capture the phenomenon of electrical coronal discharges.It is named after Soviet scientist Semyon Kirlian, who, in 1939, accidentally discovered that if an object on a photographic plate is connected to a high-voltage source, an image is produced on the photographic plate.

In photographic halftoning, the low-frequency attribute is a local area of the output image designated a halftone cell. Each equal-sized cell relates to a corresponding area (size and location) of the continuous-tone input image. Within each cell, the high-frequency attribute is a centered variable-sized halftone dot composed of ink or toner.
Contrast (vision) Six renditions of a rocky shore photo with incremental contrast levels, clockwise from bottom left. 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. The human visual system is more sensitive to ...
In the branch of experimental psychology focused on sense, sensation, and perception, which is called psychophysics, a just-noticeable difference or JND is the amount something must be changed in order for a difference to be noticeable, detectable at least half the time. [1] This limen is also known as the difference limen, difference threshold ...
Color theory, or more specifically traditional color theory, is the historical body of knowledge describing the behavior of colors, namely in color mixing, color contrast effects, color harmony, color schemes and color symbolism. [1] Modern color theory is generally referred to as Color science. While there is no clear distinction in scope ...
low level of noise; higher intra-class variance than inter-class variance, i.e., pixels from a same group have closer intensities to each other than to pixels of another group, homogeneous lighting, etc. In difficult cases, thresholding will likely be imperfect and yield a binary image with false positives and false negatives.
The first color photograph made by the three-color method suggested by James Clerk Maxwell in 1855, taken in 1861 by Thomas Sutton. The subject is a colored ribbon, usually described as a tartan ribbon. Color photography is photography that uses media capable of capturing and reproducing colors. By contrast, black-and-white or gray- monochrome ...
