Accommodation is most often seen in association with convergence, and it is well known that a variety of clues, particularly binocular fusion, drives convergence. Is there a monocular accommodation reflex, and if so, what is its stimulus? It is important to try to understand such a physiological error mechanism a widely distributed, unlearned, involuntary mechanism present in restricted monocul...

This study reports on the acoustic properties of the front vowel /i/ and the fronted back vowel /u/ in Standard Southern British English (SSBE). These two vowels are realized with very similar (and for some tokens overlapping) values of F2, so that F2 does not seem to be a reliable acoustic cue for the distinction between the two vowels. To test further possible cues to the English front-back c...

Psychophysics of Reading: Xvii

Most people with low vision need magnification to read. Page navigation is the process of moving a magnifier during reading. Modern electronic technology can provide many alternatives for navigating through text. This study compared reading speeds for four methods of displaying text. The four methods varied in their page-navigation demands. The closed-circuit television (CCTV) and MOUSE methods...

The main goal of this paper is to characterize the low-frequency part of ADC transfer function by dual tone testing from intermodulation components that are independent of test signal harmonic distortion. The theoretical analyses of incoherently sampled signals in the frequency domain and of intermodulation distortion are provided and the theory is verified by experimental results.
