visual psychophysics

Visual psychophysics is the scientific study of how our visual system perceives and interprets light, colors, shapes, and patterns. It involves measuring the relationship between physical stimuli (like brightness or contrast) and our sensory responses. Researchers use controlled experiments to understand how we see and differentiate visual information, revealing how features like glare, size, or distance affect perception. This field helps improve technologies such as displays, vision correction, and visual therapies, providing a deeper understanding of the mechanisms behind human vision and perception.
