Binocular Summation within the Binocular Visual Field
To study the influence of binocular summation on the threshold values of the central visual field in normal subjects, the authors modified the Octopus 201 by combining it with the space synoptophore. They tested ten normal subjects between 20 and 30 years of age. A space synoptophore was built into the cupola of the Octopus 201 so that the authors could confirm the conditions of binocular visio...
متن کاملPsychophysical evidence for two routes to suppression before binocular summation of signals in human vision.
Visual mechanisms in primary visual cortex are suppressed by the superposition of gratings perpendicular to their preferred orientations. A clear picture of this process is needed to (i) inform functional architecture of image-processing models, (ii) identify the pathways available to support binocular rivalry, and (iii) generally advance our understanding of early vision. Here we use monoptic ...
متن کاملBinocular summation of chance decisions
Seeing with two eyes usually helps one respond faster. Here we show that with ambiguous stimuli, binocular viewing can paradoxically slow down reaction time. This is explained by the observers basing their decision on a noisy neuronal representation within the visual system, with the added noise breaking the symmetry between the two possible interpretations. Binocular integration improves the r...
متن کاملOn the binocular summation of chromatic contrast
The binocular summation of chromatic contrast was investigated under a variety of stimulus conditions. Binocular and monocular contrast detection thresholds were measured using 0.5 cpd Gabor patches. It was found that, using stimuli which contained combinations of chromatic and luminance contrast, binocular detection could take place independently in luminance-contrast- and chromatic-contrast-s...
متن کاملDichoptic completion, rather than binocular rivalry or binocular summation
When one monocular image contains a red square partly occluding a green square, and the other monocular image is the same except that the green square is partly occluding the red one, the two images resemble each other's amodal completion. Observers typically perceive two complete squares as if the red and green surfaces are transparent or penetrating each other at their overlapping image locat...
