Abstract :
A method for estimating the visibility of halftone dot textures is presented. The estimates can be used in the design of dither signals. The method is based on the properties of human visual contrast sensitivity. The accuracy of the estimates was tested experimentally with dot textures produced by four different kinds of dither signals. The visibility predictions agreed very well with the results of psychophysical measurements.
