Discomfort glare from daylight: Influence of transmitted color and the eye's macular pigment

Designing architectural façades that allow sufficient daylight to create visually comfortable and pleasant environments is a challenging aspect of building design. It requires accounting for visual comfort and discomfort glare risks and understanding the f ...

Assessing Experiences and Visual Perception in Train Station Environments with a Mobile Application and Eye Tracking

Andrea Regula Schneider

The Customer Experience Management at the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) experiments with new technologies and methods to capture experiences and perceptions of passengers to design safe and customer friendly environments. First, a new methodological approac ...

The time course of serial dependence: an interplay between perceptual decisions and task relevant representations

Michael Herzog, Gizay Ceylan, David Pascucci

In serial dependence (SD), features of a present stimulus are judged as similar to previously presented ones. This bias is often explained by a continuity field (CF) in perception, combining similar stimuli in an extended region of space (∼ 15°) and time ( ...

Photovoltaic stimulation of retinal microcircuit for vision restoration

Naïg Aurelia Ludmilla Chenais

Sight restoration through retinal prostheses was still a mere dream a century ago. Current challenges are even greater: providing a quantitatively and qualitatively useful artificial vision to late blind patients. Existing approaches all face engineering a ...

Homogeneous light stimulation of melanopsin and cones with a Maxwellian view device for the human eye

Gilles Evéquoz, Patrick Robert Flückiger

We designed and tested a device to stimulate specifically one photoreceptor type, or a combination of some of them, of the human eye by using up to six primaries. The device produces a homogeneous light field over 40 degrees which is projected onto the ret ...

Object identity determines trans-saccadic integration

Michael Herzog, Leila Drissi Daoudi - Kleinbauer

Humans make two to four rapid eye movements (saccades) per second, which, surprisingly, does not lead to abrupt changes in vision. To the contrary, we perceive a stable world. Hence, an important question is how information is integrated across saccades. T ...

3-Dimensional magnetic resonance imaging of the freely moving human eye

Jérôme Yerly, Silvio Ionta, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen, David Zeugin, João Pedro Forjaco Jorge, Benedetta Franceschiello, Lorenzo Di Sopra

Eye motion is a major confound for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in neuroscience or ophthalmology. Currently, solutions toward eye stabilisation include participants fixating or administration of paralytics/anaesthetics. We developed a novel MRI protoco ...

Optical phase contrast imaging of human retinal cells by changing the tissue refractive index

Christophe Moser, Mathieu Künzi, Timothé Laforest, Laura Emmanuelle Kowalczuk

Purpose : Based on oblique partially coherent illumination of transparent samples, we developed a simple custom Optical Phase Imaging (OPI) microscope providing a label-free, semi-quantitative phase contrast imaging. The aim of this study was to explore th ...

The Appearance of the Warburg Effect in the Developing Avian Eye Characterized In Ovo: How Neurogenesis Can Remodel Neuroenergetics

Rolf Gruetter, Carole Poitry-Yamate, Laurent Brodier, Antoine Timothée Cherix

PURPOSE. The avian eye is an established model for exploring mechanisms that coordinate morphogenesis and metabolism during embryonic development. Less is known, however, about trafficking of bioenergetic and metabolic signaling molecules that are involved ...

Eye Thought You Were Sick! Exploring Eye Behaviors for Cybersickness Detection in VR

Ronan Boulic, Nana Tian

Cybersickness induced through Virtual Reality (VR) applications is still one of its main barriers as it can induce unwanted side-effects in players, significantly hindering the overall experience. Despite the wealth of research available on this topic, it ...

Image-Based Acquisition and Modeling of Polarimetric Reflectance

Xin Tong, Wenzel Alban Jakob, Tizian Lucien Zeltner

Realistic modeling of the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) of scene objects is a vital prerequisite for any type of physically based rendering. In the last decades, the availability of databases containing real-world material measurem ...

Predicting learners' effortful behaviour in adaptive assessment using multimodal data

Kshitij Sharma, Jennifer Kaitlyn Olsen

Many factors influence learners' performance on an activity beyond the knowledge required. Learners' on-task effort has been acknowledged for strongly relating to their educational outcomes, reflecting how actively they are engaged in that activity. Howeve ...

Multilevel regulation of the glass locus during Drosophila eye development

Michael Vincent Frochaux, Bart Deplancke, Abhishek Kumar Mishra

Development of eye tissue is initiated by a conserved set of transcription factors termed retinal determination network (RDN). In the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, the zinc-finger transcription factor Glass acts directly downstream of the RDN to contr ...

Investigating prospective memory via eye tracking: No evidence for a monitoring deficit in older adults

Michael Herzog, Marc Michael Lauffs

Prospective memory (PM) refers to remembering to perform intended actions in the future. Older adults in particular have been shown to be negatively affected by PM tasks that require a high amount of attentional resources (i.e., nonfocal tasks). This age-r ...

Single-cell transcriptional logic of cell-fate specification and axon guidance in early-born retinal neurons

Marion Leleu, Pierre Raymond Fabre, Gioele La Manno

Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), cone photoreceptors (cones), horizontal cells and amacrine cells are the first classes of neurons produced in the retina. However, an important question is how this diversity of cell states is transcriptionally produced. Here ...

Towards Modelling of Visual Saliency in Point Clouds for Immersive Applications

Touradj Ebrahimi, Evangelos Alexiou, Peisen Xu

Modelling human visual attention is of great importance in the field of computer vision and has been widely explored for 3D imaging. Yet, in the absence of ground truth data, it is unclear whether such predictions are in alignment with the actual human vie ...

Discrete windows of feature integration

Michael Herzog, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Leila Drissi Daoudi - Kleinbauer

A car drives through the night. It is hard to estimate its color from single photoreceptor activity because photoreceptor activation is short and noisy. An efficient way to estimate the color is to average photoreceptor activities along the car’s motion tr ...

En face retinal imaging

Dino Carpentras

Retinal imaging is routinely used to provide information about vision health. Recent studies showed that retinal images can also provide information on general health (e.g. stress level), brain pathologies and attention. Depending on the target information ...

Upper stimulation threshold for retinal ganglion cell activation

Objective. The existence of an upper threshold in electrically stimulated retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) is of interest because of its relevance to the development of visual prosthetic devices, which are designed to restore partial sight to blind patients. ...

Theory and design of spherical oscillator mechanisms

Simon Nessim Henein, Nicolas Ferrier, Roland Andreas Bitterli, Billy Nussbaumer, Mohammad Hussein Kahrobaiyan, Ilan Vardi, Lennart Rubbert

In previous work, we showed that two degree of freedom oscillators can be advantageously applied to horological time bases since they can be used to eliminate the escapement mechanism. We subsequently examined planar two degree of freedom oscillators based ...
