Color Calibration and Stimulus Generation

Stimuli were generated in MATLAB (The MathWorks, Natick, MA, USA) using the Psychophysics Toolbox (Brainard, 1997 (link); Kleiner, Brainard, & Pelli, 2007 ; Pelli, 1997 (link)) and displayed on a CRT monitor (Sony Triniton, Sony Electronics, New York, NY) with a mean luminance of 53 cd/m2 and chromaticity xy = [0.29, 0.30]. Observers viewed the screen from a distance of 80 cm, at which it subtended 22 × 27 degrees of visual angle. A Bits# visual stimulus generator (Cambridge Research Systems, Kent, UK) was used to control the amplitude of each color channel with 14-bit precision. Nonlinearity in the output of each color channel was characterized using a SpectroCAL spectroradiometer (Cambridge Research Systems) and corrected in software. The measured emission spectra of the monitor phosphors were integrated with psychophysically derived cone fundamentals (Smith & Pokorny, 1975 (link)) to create a linear transformation specifying the RGB values required to elicit any target triplet of cone excitation levels.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
