DESCRIPTION:Optical see-through Augmented Reality (OST-AR) is a developing
  technology that creates a mix of virtual and real using an optical combin
 er that blends images and graphics with the real-world environment. Becaus
 e of its physical transparency\, this novel display technology suffers fro
 m background bleed-through\, which distorts color and contrast. However\, 
 displayed virtual content is usually easily understandable\, thanks to per
 ceptual scission\, or the cognitive separation of foreground and backgroun
 d layers. Color appearance in OST-AR is strongly influenced by scission\, 
 which is influenced by transparency\, depth\, and parallax. This presentat
 ion will overview psychophysical research that has addressed perceived cha
 racteristics of color\, material\, and images in OST-AR. Results help both
  understand the visual mechanisms and improve tomorrow’s AR systems\, wh
 ich promise new human-computer interfaces in domains including education\,
  medicine\, and entertainment.\n\nMichael J. Murdoch is an Associate Profe
 ssor and Director of the Munsell Color Science Laboratory at the Rochester
  Institute of Technology with 25 years of research experience focused on c
 olor in advanced displays and LED lighting. He is a recipient of an NSF CA
 REER Award and a Fulbright U.S. Scholar Award. He holds a BS in Chemical E
 ngineering from Cornell\, MS in Computer Science from RIT\, and PhD in Hum
 an-Technology Interaction from Eindhoven University of Technology in The N
 etherlands.\n\nZoom link: https://cam-ac-uk.zoom.us/j/85792379948?pwd=Gu5g
