Luminance Asymmetry in Stereoscopic Content: Binocular Rivalry or Luster

Binocular representation of images suffers often from asymmetries between the images, originating from the display systems used for the presentation and from mismatches in the left-right images introduced during the image acquisition and processing. Two experiments were conducted to investigate the implications of the altered luminance levels of the left-eye and right-eye images to the visual experience.
