متن کاملColor-Vision and Color-Blindness
Special public attention was called to the subject in 1875 by an enquiry into the causes of a railway accident which had taken place in Sweden, from which it appears that colourblindness was the cause of the disaster. Our author having described colour-sensations, goes on to discuss the theories of colour-perception and colour-blindness, classifying the latter defect as total and partial. Total...
متن کاملColor vision.
Color vision starts with the absorption of light in the retinal cone photoreceptors, which transduce electromagnetic energy into electrical voltages. These voltages are transformed into action potentials by a complicated network of cells in the retina. The information is sent to the visual cortex via the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) in three separate color-opponent channels that have been c...
متن کاملMammalian Vision: Rods Are a Bargain
To maintain resting potentials in darkness, rod and cone photoreceptors incur a significant energy cost. But in brighter light, rods become energetically 'cheaper' than cones, which might explain the evolution of the vertebrate duplex retina.
متن کاملSelection by color and form in vision.
Whether attention to a local part of a visual display can prevent access to semantic information in form matching tasks with objects was studied. A first picture containing a line segment (the reference) was followed by 2 lateral objects also containing a line segment (a target and a distractor). Participants matched the line segments according to either their orientation or color. Effects of s...
