Document Summary

Color affects visual properties of objects or space, and has a psychological and behavioral impact. It impacts what we believe and how we feel about our environments. Color and light are visually inseparable, but we will try to understand this. Thus we start with additive and subtractive color. The combination of all colored light results in white: subtractive color. Subtractive color refers to pigment color, not light. The combination of all pigment colors produce black. When all the colors of light are combined, white light is created. In subtractive color, the color perceived is the color that is not absorbed, instead, it is reflected. In applying color in design, the production of color is dependent upon the media. They are abstract methods of understanding color and are used to communicate color to others. In studying color, he develops the first color wheel (debatable) and identifies the color spectrum in the roy g biv (or, richard of.

Exercise #5: The Nervous system and Perception

Task #1: Color vision


Introduction

In the human retina, there are two kinds of light-sensitive cells: rods and cones. These cells are located on the outside of the retina, away from the vitreous humor and against the choroid layer, and are covered by a later of bipolar and ganglion cells as well as neurons. Light enters the posterior chamber through the lens and must pass through several cell layers before it is absorbed by the rods and cones.

Cones are involved in color vision at daylight intensities. Generator potentials in a cone excite one neuron, giving high-level resolution vision. Cones will not cause neural firing at low light intensities and are, therefore, nonfunctional at night.

Rods provoke black-and-white vision at low light intensities. A bipolar cell associates with several rods, so that generator potentials sum in their effect. This assures neuronal firing at low light intensities and provides a highly sensitive vision but with less resolution.

Receptor convergence. A ganglion cell, which receives input from a number of rods, spread out over the retina, cannot pinpoint the source of a light stimulus as well as a ganglion cell, which is stimulated by a single photoreceptor. In the case of a ganglion cell receiving the added input of several rods, light hitting any one of the rods can cause a neural spike in the ganglion cell, but the brain has no way to know which rod was excited. It is therefore harder to pinpoint the location of light stimuli on the retina when the stimulus is detected by rods (as compared to cones). The result is that our ability to see detail, or our resolving power, is considerably lower under dim light conditions than under bright light conditions.

Dark adaptation. If you go from a lighted area to a very dark room, you will not be able to see. After about ten minutes, however, you begin to be able to see again. This occurs because the rhodopsin pigment, which gets broken down when it absorbs light, is continually re-synthesized in the rods. When there is very little light, very little rhodopsin gets broken down and the amount of rhodopsin gradually builds up, making the rod much more sensitive to dim light.

When light strikes a receptor cell, it triggers a photo-chemical reaction that leads to neuronal firing. If a rod or cone receives high-intensity light, the visual pigments will be temporarily bleached and will not absorb any more light. Within a matter of a few seconds, enzyme systems in the cells will restore the visual pigment to its light-absorbing form. This can be easily demonstrated. If, after viewing a bright light, the eye is quickly shut or turned to a dark wall, the bright image will persist as a positive afterimage because the high generator potential causes the continued firing of neurons. If the eye is cast on a lighter background after a few seconds, a negative afterimage, or a dark image of the object will appear. This is because the still bleached cells are not receptive to the light coming from the light background.

According to the Young-Helmholtz theory of color vision, there are three types of cone cells, which respond respectively to red, green, and blue light.

All other colors are perceived as the brain interprets impulses coming from a mix of these receptors. If an object of one color is viewed for a long period of time at high light intensity, the cones for that color will become bleached. The afterimage of the object will be seen in the complementary color.

The Exercise 6 PowerPoint will demonstrate afterimages to you. Use the slide show option to project the square of red light on your entire screen in a dark room. After staring intensely at the square for 30 seconds or so, without shifting your gaze, click enter to change the slide to a soft white. Continue staring at the screen as the change is made. What do you see? What was the color of the afterimage?

Repeat this experiment using a blue square. Before doing the experiment, hypothesize what color the afterimage will be according to the Young-Helmholtz theory.
