ABSTRACT
The Talbot-Plateau law specifies what combinations of flash frequency, duration, and intensity will yield a flicker-fused stimulus that matches the brightness of a steady stimulus. It has proven to be remarkably robust in its predictions, and here we provide additional support though the use of a contrast discrimination task. However, we also find that the visual system can register flicker-fused letters when the combination of frequency and duration is relatively low. The letters are recognized even though they have the same physical luminance as background. We hypothesize that the letters elicit synchronous oscillations that encode for stimulus attributes, which prevents the letter from blending into the background.
