Citation preview
COLOURS SEEN THROUGH TRANSPARENT OBJECTS
Osvaldo da Pos, Cristina Rao
Department of Applied Psychology
University of Padua
Goals
Do colours seen through a translucent filter appear constant?
In which conditions do they change more?
Participants
4 female observers, ~ 24 year old, with good colour vision
AIC | 2010 - da Pos, Rao Colours seen through transparent objects
MONDRIAN (objects in the background)
Test – initially achromatic areas
Reference – 9 colours
FILTERS
• 16 filters (Y, R, B, G)
• two chroma levels: C = 20, C = 60 (NCS)
• two transparency levels: α = 0.10, α = 0.50
• Control condition: without filter

the 2 images are binocularly fused:
the filter is seen behind

Different degrees of

significantly influence
the colour matching

Conclusions
• When the objects behind the filterare completely covered,colour constancy is very poor
• Colour constancy depends on:– the chroma of the filter
• low chroma at hightransparency
– the colour of the filter• blue filter at high
transparency– not on the transparency level
(under our conditions)
• Variability inter-observers was notmuch higher than variability intra-observers
