On Wednesday 21st June, Sophie M Wuerger presented a talk,Colour Appearance & Cone Signals, at IS&T's Third European Conference on Colour in Graphics, Imaging, and Vision (CGIV) at the University of Leeds.

The talk was sponsored by Cambridge Research Systems as part of our on-going support of the Vision Science community.

The results add further weight to the idea that the colour vision system in adult humans is able to recalibrate itself based on prior visual experience and that our colour appearance mechanisms may be a consequence of environmental constraints.

An exciting collaboration between Cambridge Research Systems and Imagine Eyes will bring the advantages of adaptive optics into your laboratory, using simple tools to create highly controllable, diffraction limited images on the retina.

The system combines the ViSaGe Visual Stimulus Generator with the award winning crx1, using an advanced Wavefront Aberrometer and a unique Deformable Membrane Mirror which is capable of completely compensating for aberrations in 99% of eyes, without the use of accessory optics.
