Scientific study of vision
Vision science is the scientific study of visual perception . Researchers in vision science can be called vision scientists , especially if their research spans some of the science's many disciplines.
Vision science encompasses all studies of vision, such as how human and non-human organisms process visual information, how conscious visual perception works in humans, how to exploit visual perception for effective communication , and how artificial systems can do the same tasks. Vision science overlaps with or encompasses disciplines such as ophthalmology and optometry , neuroscience (s), psychology (particularly sensation and perception psychology , cognitive psychology , linguistics , biopsychology , psychophysics , and neuropsychology ), physics (particularly optics ), ethology , and computer science (particularly computer vision , artificial intelligence , and computer graphics ), as well as other engineering related areas such as data visualization , user interface design , and human factors and ergonomics .
