Abstract

Experiments with a disc of the type of Benhams top. The black and white pattern on the rotating disc fuses, resulting in two concentric rings of different color. The threshold of detection of color differences between the rings was studied as a function of the pattern and the frequency of rotation. Result: relative shifts in time between photic stimuli at neighboring retinal areas of less than 1 msec may alter the color. The effect of these short time differences is hypothetically attributed to the activity of the horizontal cells.
