Study Notes

Visual Perception

The eye transforms light into electrical signals, which are then sent to the brain for processing.
As luminance increases, the rate of flicker also increases.
The human eye interprets rapidly on and off light as constantly on.

Color Perception

The eye perceives color as a result of the interaction of light and objects in the environment.
Color perception is influenced by factors such as the wavelength of light, the surface of the object, and the surrounding environment.

Capabilities and Limitations of Visual Processing

The human eye is limited in what it can perceive.
Visual perception can be influenced by factors such as environmental conditions, individual differences, and cognitive biases.
Visual processing can create optical illusions.

Vision and Interaction with Computers

The human eye and visual system limit what can be seen.
The human vision system consists of two stages: reception of stimuli and processing and interpretation of that stimuli.
Human computer interaction depends on the user receiving information output from the computer and providing input back to the computer.
