Stimulus: Light (Elecro-magnetic radiation)
Receptor: Cones and Rods
![Page 2: 1. Vision Stimulus: Light (Elecro-magnetic radiation) Receptor: Cones and Rods](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649da65503460f94a9219e/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
• Approximately – 6-7 million cones– 75-150 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
![Page 21: 1. Vision Stimulus: Light (Elecro-magnetic radiation) Receptor: Cones and Rods](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649da65503460f94a9219e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Color Blindness
• 8% of Men• 1% of Women• Usually red and green• Sometimes yellow and Blue• Very few are totally color blind
![Page 22: 1. Vision Stimulus: Light (Elecro-magnetic radiation) Receptor: Cones and Rods](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649da65503460f94a9219e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

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
