A visual display system for reading and visual perception research
The selection of a computer visual display system suitable for word recognition and reading research is described. The software character generation routines permit flexible definition of character sets. The display software permits control of size scaling and point density of characters being displayed as well as control over the temporal microstructure of presenting and refreshing the display...
متن کاملIs the rod visual field temporally homogeneous?
Cone vision has been shown to be temporally inhomogeneous across the visual field. In the periphery, contrast sensitivity is lower for low temporal frequencies and higher for high temporal frequencies. Here we ask a similar question for rod vision at mesopic luminances. Isolation is obtained by testing a well documented rod monochromat. We show that the rod visual field exhibits only a modest d...
متن کاملReading Visual Braille with a Retinal Prosthesis
Retinal prostheses, which restore partial vision to patients blinded by outer retinal degeneration, are currently in clinical trial. The Argus II retinal prosthesis system was recently awarded CE approval for commercial use in Europe. While retinal prosthesis users have achieved remarkable visual improvement to the point of reading letters and short sentences, the reading process is still fairl...
متن کاملReading in people with Down syndrome: "Visual route" or "phonological route"?
Background and Purpose: Many people with Down syndrome learn to read to some degree, but how they learn to read has been debated by researchers. Some researchers have argued that given the phonological deficits of people with Down syndrome and their stronger visual-spatial abilities, they rely on the "visual route" to learn to read, while others have shown that the "phonological route" is also ...
