Summary
This paper investigates how contrast perception models apply to elderly drivers, with implications for lighting design in road and automotive contexts to compensate for age-related vision decline. Understanding how aging affects contrast sensitivity, including the role of ipRGCs, can inform lighting standards for safer environments for older populations.
