Visual Performance under Monochromatic Illumination and Scotopic Vision Conditions.

摘要

The objective of this report was to investigate the effect of different colors of illumination on visual performance. The experiment was conducted in a dark room in order to simulate nighttime conditions. Three colors of illumination were selected and the visual performance of ten subjects was examined at three illumination intensity levels. The three colors selected for testing were red, blue, and amber. Task scores, obtained from a manipulative dexterity task, were used to evaluate visual performance. A three-factor, randomized block design model was used to analyze the data of the experiment. The color of illumination, for a manipulative dexterity task, was found to have no significant effect on visual performance at a 5 percent level of significance.
