Thomas Papathomas, Director


The Laboratory of Vision Research (LVR) has three major objectives: to conduct advanced interdisciplinary research in vision by engaging undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral researchers; to offer undergraduate and graduate courses in visual perception and related areas; and to serve as a consulting body to local and global institutions and scientific journalists. Research is focused on early vision, such as texture, stereoscopic depth, and motion perception, as well as the role of cognitive processes in perception. Of particular interest are the interactions of data-driven signals arriving to the eyes and schema-driven processes that are based on previous experiences and biases, as they pertain to perceiving three-dimensional (3-D) objects, scenes, and faces. LVR uses real 3-D volumetric illusions and virtual-reality stimuli to examine these interactions.
