Adaptive Optics System for Visual Psychophysics

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Measurements were performed in a custom-developed Adaptive Optics (AO) system, described in detail previously [38 ]. The system has a Hartmann-Shack wavefront sensor (32x32 microlenses; HASO 32 OEM, Imagine eyes, France) and an electromagnetic deformable mirror (52 actuators and 50mm stroke; MIRAO, Imagine eyes, France), which, for the purpose of this study, were only used to measure and correct the system’s aberrations in a closed-loop operation. A motorized Badal system corrects and induces defocus, while a pupil monitoring system (LED ring illuminator and a CCD camera) is used to align and monitor the position of the subjects. Visual stimulus was displayed in a CRT monitor (Mitsubishi Diamond Pro2070) with an angular subtend of 2 deg in the psychophysical channel. All optoelectronic elements are controlled in the computer by C++ and MATLAB software. A 7-mm artificial pupil was placed in a conjugate pupil plane in the visual stimulus channel, which allowed measurements with different pupil diameters (5, 4 and 3 mm).

Precise Calibration of Visual Stimuli

Stimuli were generated in MATLAB (The MathWorks, Natick, MA, USA) using the Psychophysics Toolbox (Brainard, 1997 (link); Kleiner, Brainard, & Pelli, 2007 ; Pelli & Vision, 1997 (link)) and displayed on a CRT monitor (DiamondPro 2070; Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) with a mean luminance of 50 cd/m2 and chromaticity xy = {0.31, 0.33}. Observers viewed the screen from a distance of 80 cm, at which it subtended 22° × 27° 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.

Stereo Vision Perception Experiment

Stimuli were displayed on a Mitsubishi Diamond pro 2070 1024 × 768 px CRT monitor with a 100 Hz refresh rate. Subjects viewed the stimuli from a distance of 40 cm, through a set of mirrors, such that the left eye saw the left half of the screen, and the right eye saw the right half of the screen. The experiment was written and executed using Matlab and Psychophysics toolbox version 3.1 (Brainard, 1997 (link); Pelli, 1997 (link); Kleiner et al., 2007 (link)). Statistical analysis was performed using Matlab and R (R Foundation for Statistical Computing Vienna, Austria).

Visual Presentation and Stimuli Specifications

Stimuli were presented on a 20-inch CRT monitor (Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 2070; frame rate 120 HZ, resolution 1280 × 1024 pixels; Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). All pictures were reduced to a size of 1200 × 960 pixels. For the presentation during the experiment, images were displayed in the center of the screen with gray borders extending 32 pixels to the top/bottom and 40 pixels to the left/right of the image. Images covered 31.1 degree of visual angle in the horizontal and 24.9 degree in the vertical dimension.

Visual Stimulus Presentation Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The visual stimuli were presented on a Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 2070 monitor driven at 100 Hz, sitting outside the magnetically shielded room and viewed directly through a cut-away portal in the shield at a viewing distance of 215 cm. Participants were sitting in the dark; their head movements were restrained by a chin rest.

Bilingual Color Perception Experiment

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All stimuli (colour patches and numerals) were presented using E-Prime 2.0 software and a 32-bit colour and Nvidia graphics card on a 20" Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 2070 set to an 85Hz refresh rate with 1024x768 resolution. The monitor was switched on at least 30 minutes before testing for normal operating temperature to be achieved. Participants sat in darkness measured at less than .01 cd/m 2 (measured with a Minolta LS-100) in the absence of light from the monitor, and used a centrallyplaced chinrest which maintained a constant distance from the screen of approx.
60cm. An enforced ten-minute dark adaptation period with only the light of the monitor (grey screen) preceded the practice trials. A grey background was maintained throughout the experiment. were generated from the same RGB co-ordinates as those used for light and dark blues and greens in Athanasopoulos et al. (2010) and Thierry et al. (2009) . These colours had been selected for their cross-colour equivalence in luminance, their prototypicality as examples of the Greek categories for ble and ghalazio, and for the previous evidence that bilingual Greek-English speakers resident in the UK were sensitive to the distinction between them (Thierry et al., 2009) .

Eye Movement Recording During Visual Stimuli

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Stimuli were presented on a 20-in. CRT monitor (Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 2070; refresh rate 120 Hz; resolution: 1280 3 1024 pixels). Eye movements were recorded binocularly using the video-based Eyelink 1000 system (SR Research, Osgoode, ON, Canada) with a sampling rate of 1000 Hz. In order to reduce head movements we asked participants to position their head on a chinrest in front of the computer screen (viewing distance: 70 cm). Stimulus presentation and response collection were implemented in MATLAB (MathWorks, Natick, MA) using the Psychophysics Toolbox (Brainard, 1997; Kleiner et al., 2007; Pelli, 1997) and Eyelink Toolbox (Cornelissen, Peters, & Palmer, 2002) .

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.
