A

Behave as though they have no cone vision; average illumination levels appear too bright must wear dark spectacles

Q

mesopic

A

twilight (before sunrise and after sunset)

20
Q

V-function

A

shows us how our eyes perceive brightness by correlating radiant energy

21
Q

2 degree field of view

A

mostly cones used (foveola)

22
Q

10 degree field of view

A

Typical fields of view in

23
Q

trichromacy

A

ability to match any color by mixing 3 primary light sources

24
Q

Trichromacy theory failures

A

Doesn’t explain after images or mixing of lights to produce colors like yellow

25
Q

Opponent color theory

A

pairs: RG, YB, Light-Dark
(color is due to the combined response from these three different components)

26
Q

retinex theory

A

Based on lightness comparisons in a visual scene; 3 independent channels for comparing lightness; explains color constancy

27
Q

Beer-Lambert Law

A

Absorption of light is proportional to the number of absorbing molecules for a given path length

28
Q

Hue

A

distinct color

29
Q

Unique hue

A

pure for a given observer, not tinted by adjacent hues, can be used to define axes in a perceptual model with 3/d being lightness scale

30
Q

Monochromatic graph

A

All photons have same energy level

31
Q

Polychromatic graph

A

Photons in a beam of light have a variety of wavelengths

32
Q

What are the differant modes of viewing color

A

Self luminous
Aperture
object
Volume

33
Q

Color Science can be applied in industry for:

A

Color specifiaction
Standarization
Process Control
Computer colorant fomulation
Color Measurement

34
Q

Green is cultural sig.

A

Fertility in Europe
Infidelity in China
Envy in the West

35
Q

perception of color

A

Understand how eye responds to light

entails how one experiences color

36
Q

what variables at point of sale play a role in color perception

A

display modes

types of illumination in the store

use of catalogs for display

37
Q

psychology of color perception

A

provides information on how color is percieved based on mood and enviroment

38
Q

Achromatic colors

A

black, grey, white

39
Q

related colors

A

context of scene

40
Q

unrelated colo

A

isolation

41
Q

Chemical responsible for transmission of images to brain

A

11-cis-retinal

42
Q

11-cis-retinal derivative

A

Vitamin A1

43
Q

Cone require _______ levels of illumination, provide photopic vision

A

high

44
Q

compeonents of the eye help focus light

A

Lens (1/3) and cornea (2/3)

45
Q

how does lens morphologically change when focusing on distant object

A

becomes flatter

46
Q

differance between sensation and perception

A

sensation: detection of light
perception: result from sensation

47
Q

afterimage

A

A visual image that persists after a stimulus is removed.
