Notes on the Farnsworth-Munsell 100-Hue Stimuli

The Farnsworth-Munsell 100 Hue test is a behavioral test of color vision.

It was adapted for use in the fMRI scanner as described in

In these publications, stimuli was presented using a Cambridge Research Systems graphics board. Each color was calibrated to be the same brightness as every color using flicker photometry. This is important because the F-M 100 Hue test requires subjects to place the colors in order by hue. If the colors differ in brightness, subjects could "cheat" and use brightness as a cue. However, equating brightnesses is time-consuming. Therefore, the fMRI adaptation was further adapted to eliminate the brightness matching step as described in
