Averted vision works because there are virtually no rods (cells which detect dim light in black and white) in the fovea: a small area in the center of the eye. The fovea contains primarily cone cells, which serve as bright light and color detectors and are not as useful during the night. This situation results in a decrease in visual ...
The temporal light modulation may come from fluctuations of the light source itself or may be due to the application of certain dimming or light level regulation technologies. Another cause of light modulations may be lamps with unfiltered pulse-width modulation type external dimmers. Whether this is so may be tested with any quickly-rotating ...
In rats, constant light eventually disrupts the cycle to the point that memory and stress coping may be impaired. [15] The intensity and the wavelength of light influence entrainment. [2] Dim light can affect entrainment relative to darkness. [16] Brighter light is more effective than dim light. [12]

Reverse motion – a visual effect in which reversing the order of the frames of a film or video makes time appear to run backward; Reverse tape effects – an audio effect in which reversing the direction of an audio recording renders sounds backward; T-symmetry (or time reversal symmetry) – the expected symmetry of physical laws independent ...
Visual snow is a phenomenon where a person perceives visual disturbances, such as fine graininess or "static," in their field of vision. This can occur in low-light conditions, in the dark, or when the visual system amplifies light perception.
Radiant energy outside the visible spectrum does not contribute to photometric quantities at all, so for example a 1000 watt space heater may put out a great deal of radiant flux (1000 watts, in fact), but as a light source it puts out very few lumens (because most of the energy is in the infrared, leaving only a dim red glow in the visible).
A Time Reversal Mirror (TRM) is a device that can focus waves using the time reversal method. TRMs are also known as time reversal mirror arrays since they are usually arrays of transducers. TRM are well-known and have been used for decades in the optical domain. They are also used in the ultrasonic domain.
