1. Vision Stimulus: Light (Elecro-magnetic radiation) Receptor: Cones and Rods

Approximately –6-7 million cones – million rods Cones are most sensitive to color and higher levels of light Rods most effective in lower light conditions, black and white etc.

Binocular Vision Monocular depth cues allow us to see in 3D with one eye, but it’s best with both –Because left and right eyes see things a little differently – binocular disparity The combination of two images into the one we see –Example: Finger Sausage

Color Blindness 8% of Men 1% of Women Usually red and green Sometimes yellow and Blue Very few are totally color blind

After Image A visual impression that persists after the removal of the stimulus which originally caused it. –Example: American Flag, Jesus

Autosereogram Illusion of depth through binocular cues Formed by superimposing 2 repeating patterns, which are slightly offset
