Orientation dependency for foveal line stimuli: detection and intensity discrimination, resolution, orientation discrimination and Vernier acuity
Thresholds were measured for five tasks: line detection, intensity discrimination, two-line resolution, vernier acuity and line-orientation discrimination. For each task, 30 arcmin lines were presented foveally in eight retinal meridians to assess similarities in orientation anisotropies across tasks in the same observer. Three observers were tested. The pattern of the orientation anisotropy di...
متن کاملContrast dependency of foveal spatial functions: orientation, vernier, separation, blur and displacement discrimination and the tilt and Poggendorff illusions
To examine the effect of reducing luminance contrast in human foveal vision, discrimination thresholds were measured in four tasks and also a numerical measure of two visual illusions were obtained by a nulling technique. The patterns used for all tasks were made very similar to facilitate comparison between them--all featured luminance step edges whose contrast could be varied from near unity ...
متن کاملOrientation anisotropy in vernier acuity
An oblique effect is evident in vernier acuity for abutting lines. In Experiment 1 we show that the oblique effect in vernier acuity exists over a range of contrast levels, and is evident even when the horizontal and oblique lines are equally detectable or discriminable. Since this oblique effect cannot be explained by the lower visibility of oblique vernier lines or of the "dipole" cue, it is ...
متن کاملLane detection by orientation and length discrimination
This paper describes a novel lane detection algorithm for visual traffic surveillance applications under the auspice of intelligent transportation systems. Traditional lane detection methods for vehicle navigation typically use spatial masks to isolate instantaneous lane information from on-vehicle camera images. When surveillance is concerned, complete lane and multiple lane information is ess...
متن کاملLines and gabor functions compared as spatial visual stimuli
Foveal discrimination thresholds were measured for orientation, vernier alignment, bisection, displacement detection and stereoscopic acuity using simple line stimuli and also sinusoidal grating patches with gaussian intensity modulation (Gabor stimuli). Stimulus parameters such as luminance, exposure duration, component separation and, as far as possible, length were identical for both. Orient...
