Spatial frequency adaptation can enhance contrast sensitivity.
A~~ct-Adaptation to a high-contr~t sinusoid& ium~nan~ grating produces a temporary, bandlimited loss in sensitivity centered around the adaptation frequency. The decrease appears to be both narrower and more symmetrical than earlier reports suggest. The effect falls to zero by f f 1 octave and is not reliably present from f f 1 octave to f k 2 octaves. Enhancement of contrast sensitivity occurs...
متن کاملSpatial contrast sensitivity in dynamic and static additive luminance noise
The purpose of this study was to define the quantitative relationship between the temporal characteristics of additive luminance noise and the properties of the spatial contrast sensitivity function (CSF). CSFs were obtained from two observers using Gabor patch targets of short duration that were added to white luminance noise with a range of root-mean-square contrasts (c(rms)). The noise was e...
متن کاملMeasuring contrast sensitivity
Contrast sensitivity defines the threshold between the visible and invisible, which has obvious significance for basic and clinical vision science. Fechner's 1860 review reported that threshold contrast is 1% for a remarkably wide range of targets and conditions. While printed charts are still in use, computer testing is becoming more popular because it offers efficient adaptive measurement of ...
متن کاملDoes impaired contrast sensitivity explain the spatial uncertainty of amblyopes?
We investigated the possibility that the spatial imprecision of amblyopic eyes can be accounted for by the relative insensitivity to contrast that has been documented for these eyes. Thresholds for the discrimination of spatial misalignment, a measure of spatial uncertainty, were determined for three amblyopes and one normal for targets ranging in contrast from detection threshold to 99%. We fo...
متن کاملContrast sensitivity throughout adulthood.
Previous studies of spatial contrast sensitivity in adulthood have produced conflicting results. To clarify the situation, we measured contrast sensitivity functions on a large sample of adults (n = 91), ranging in age from 19 to 87. All observers were free from significant ocular pathology and were individually refracted for the test distance. Sensitivity for stationary gratings of low spatial...
