Color-appearance-matched data in high-dynamic-range luminance conditions
Abstract:
We report color-appearance-matched data under high-dynamic-range luminance conditions. The experimental method and apparatus proposed in a previous study [J. Opt. Soc. Am. A36, 1940 (2019)JOAOD60740-323210.1364/JOSAA.36.001940] were used to measure perceptual color shifts in the R, G, B, Y, RB, BG, GY, and YR groups of 16 samples under four dual-illumination conditions at luminance levels of (300 and 4500c d/m 2), (20 and 300c d/m 2), (80 and 4500c d/m 2), and (20 and 4,500c d/m 2). We observed a decrease in lightness for all samples, and hue shifts toward blue in R, red in reddish YR, and green in BG samples when the luminance changed from low to high. Correlated changes in lightness and chroma, that is, an increase in lightness change and a decrease in chroma change under the highest luminance contrast (20 and 4500c d/m 2), were observed for the Y, GY, and YR samples.

Perceptual Constancy
Size constancy is the recognition that an object remains the same size, even when its image on the retina changes. For instance, a bus is perceived to be large enough to carry people, even if it looks tiny from...
Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...
