Abstract
When two visual patterns moving in opposite directions are superimposed on the same depth plane, they appear to have two transparent surfaces moving independently (transparent motion). Additionally, the direction of the slow phase of optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) corresponds to the direction of motion that dominates the perceptual appearance. This study examines whether pupil changes correspond to the luminance of the dominated objects related to the transition of the slow-phase direction in OKN following objects. Stimuli consisted of two random dot patterns of different luminance that moved in opposite directions. The results showed that pupil size changed in accordance with the luminance of the pattern in the slow phase of OKN immediately after OKN transition. This suggests that pupil size is modulated with OKN in transparent motion.
