doesn't distort image

the eye big/small is the same so
the brain helps out

we achieve constancy by
using our other sensory systems and info
4 of 25
for size we use binocular vision....
cross eyed = near
5 of 25
to find out the lightness we use
shadows

what we get in the eye = things should be the same
but we take illumination into account, even though light falling in eye is same ajust calculation to pick up distal stimulus

if you have light next to dark
cells inhibit it so they don't seend so you can't see it well

Hebel wessel
looked at neurone firing in cats

If cell fires rapidly there
is lots of AP to that object
19 of 25
what pattern causes cell to fire
receptive field

Feature receptors are
neurones that respond to specific attributs
21 of 25
if feature detector doesn't fire
it's inhibitory does like the line
