Selectivity of cyclopean masking for the spatial frequency of binocular disparity modulation.

abstract：:The spectral sensitivity of the extracellularly-recorded photoresponse of isolated rods of the tiger salamander, Ambystoma tigrinum, was compared to the absorptance spectrum. Both measurements were made with the same optical system on the same portion of each cell to avoid errors that could occur when the two kinds of...
