DESCRIPTION:Colour constancy is the ability to recognize the colour of sur
 faces despite changes of the chromatic content of their illumination.  In 
 recent years\, there has been a great interest in the study of colour cons
 tancy with near-realistic stimuli\, e.g. the spectral distribution of natu
 ral illumination and surfaces\, specular highlights\, and three-dimensiona
 l scenes. In particular\, colour constancy has been shown to be influenced
  by the spatial properties of a scene\, such as the relation between the s
 patial frequency and orientation of surfaces and their relative position i
 n depth. Motion is another important aspect of real visual scenes\, but it
 s impact on colour constancy has long been neglected.  This talk will pres
 ent psychophysical experiments that demonstrate specific influences of mot
 ion on colour constancy.
