Abstract

A hollow fibreglass sphere of 750 mm diameter was used to create an immersive mesopic viewing environment. Light was projected through a series of 20nm-bandwidth filters to illuminate the interior of the sphere with a near-monochromatic adapting field. The task of the observer was to set a target to appear neutral grey, using two interactive slider controls. The results suggest that chromatic adaptation is continuing even after an hour, suggesting the influence of retinal mechanisms with a very long time period.
