Relationship between perceived glossiness and pupillary responses

Press Releases | May 9, 2024

Even if the physical luminance is the same, a higher glossiness is linked to a smaller pupillary diameter

The association between perceived glossiness and pupillary response has previously been elucidated through a collaborative effort involving the Cognitive Neurotechnology Unit and the Visual Perception and Cognition Laboratory in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the Toyohashi University of Technology. The phenomenon of pupillary constriction in response to bright visual stimuli has further been widely acknowledged. This investigation revealed that, after adjusting for uniform physical luminance levels among images, images perceived as highly glossy elicited greater pupil constriction. The results of this study will be published online in Vision Research on April 4, 2024.
