Human Perception
Retina contains photo
receptors
Cones: day vision, can
perceive color tone
Red, green, and blue
cones
Different cones have
different frequency
responses
Tri-receptor theory of
color vision
[Young1802]
Rods: night vision,
perceive brightness only
Color sensation is
characterized by
Luminance (brightness)
Chrominance
Hue (color tone)
Saturation (color purity)

Colour blindness
Canot distinguish colours such as
confusing the red and green of traffic lights.

Visual Persistence
Visual Persistence
The visual system has a slow response to
change in stimulus. The eye can still sense
an image for a little while after the physical
image is removed.
Human eyes are incapable of capturing
stimulus changes occurring in less than
50ms.

Colour Mixing
Trichromatic colour
mixing theory
Any colour can be
obtained by mixing
three primary
colours with a right
proportion

Visual Acuity
Visual acuity is a term commonly used to
describe the eyes ability to resolve spatial
details.
In the snellen chart, the term 20/20. This
means that at 20 feet or 6 meters, a typical
human eye, able to separate 1 minute arc,
can resolve lines with a spacing of about
1.75mm. This is roughly the limit of angular
discrimination of normal vision.
If there are less than 24 changes per degree
of vision from the eye, each of these
changes will be seen as distinct and of fixed
location. But at slightly higher spatial rates Snellen chart
(e.g., 25 cycles per degree above) no
changes would be observed as the rate of
change would exceed the eyes capability.

Temporal Property of The Eye
Saccadic motion: is a fast movement of an eye,
head or other part of body. It is a quick
simultaneous movements of both eyes in the same
direction. By moving the eye so that small parts of
a scene can be sensed with greater resolution.
22
Contrast Sensitivity of Eye
Intensity is radiant
power in a particular
direction and
luminance is
proportional to
intensity.
Vision cannot
distinguish two
luminance levels if the
ratio between them is
less than about 1.01.
Contrast sensitivity is
proportional to
brightness.
