Cover Story: The relationship between luminous intensity and the maximum frequency of flicker that can be detected defines the limits of the temporal-resolving ability of the human visual system, and characterizing it has important theoretical and practical applications. Previous research has shown that this relationship is best described by the Ferry–Porter law, which states that critical flicker fusion (CFF) increases as a linear function of log retinal illuminance. Existing experimental data show that this law holds for a wide range of stimuli and up to 10,000 Trolands, but beyond this, it was not clear if the CFF continued to increase linearly or if the function saturated. In this study, we extend the experimental data available by measuring the peripheral CFF at higher light intensity levels than previously reported in the literature. View this paper
