This unique volume examines a broad spectrum of the latest topics in visual science -- relating basic studies to practical applications and delineating points of intersection among the various disciplines that study the mechanisms of vision. Offering the authoritative contributions of international experts, Visual Science and Engineering contains valuable editorial background notes in each chapter that clarify the presentation and enhance the book's fluid style ... discusses the Purkinje-image eyetracker ... elucidates the principles of high-definition television ... covers the role of stabilized-image technology in revealing how eye movements control both luminous and chromatic perceptions ... explores the multiplexing processes in the visual system that create interactions among the three basic dimensions of vision ... explains the molecular genetics of cone pigments ... treats portable, device-independent color reproduction in both rotogravure and desktop publication ... gives insight into future developments in sophisticated coding for real-time displays based on a deeper understanding of visual processes ... and more. Generously referenced and illustrated, Visual Science and Engineering is an invaluable resource for optical engineers and physicists, imaging scientists, psychologists, physiologists, and graduate-level students in these disciplines.
