Configurational asymmetry in vernier offset detection
Two psychophysical experiments were conducted at the horizontal and vertical orientations respectively, demonstrating substantial main effect of configuration, but no effect of offset direction on vernier acuity. In Experiment 1, a pair of horizontal bars were arranged side by side with a large gap between them. The observers were, on average, significantly better at discriminating a vertical o...
متن کاملLuminance processing in apparent motion, Vernier offset and stereoscopic depth
We obtained (apparently) linear responses to luminance from three special displays of apparent motion, Vernier offset and stereoscopic depth. In our motion stimulus a dark and a light bar exchanged luminances repetitively on a grey surround. Motion was attributed to the bar that differed more from the surround, that is, on a dark surround the light bar appeared to jump, and on a light surround ...
متن کاملSelectivity of the evoked potential for vernier offset.
Hyperacuity thresholds of a few arc seconds can be achieved psychophysically for a variety of spatial localization tasks. The present experiments show that evoked potentials can be elicited in response to the introduction of vernier offsets, but not by the introduction of other cues to hyperacuity such as bisection or relative pattern motion, although each of these cues is equally salient psych...
متن کاملVernier acuity as line and dipole detection.
The vernier judgment is commonly thought of as discriminating the displacement of a portion of a pattern. However, we have found it revealing to consider vernier stimuli in another light; as the composite of a test pattern superimposed on a masking pedestal. The pedestal is the pattern with zero spatial offset, and the test pattern is the luminance distribution which, when added to the pedestal...
متن کاملA contrast paradox in stereopsis, motion detection, and vernier acuity
Stereoacuity improves with increasing contrast, unless the increase is monocular. In this case performance paradoxically suffers. This study examined whether this contrast paradox occurs for two other classes of visual judgment: two-frame motion and vernier acuity. We constructed three homologous tasks in which the two components of a gabor stimulus (stereo half-images, motion frames, vernier c...
