Cor ou não cor: a questão da seleção de códigos para utilização em displays de raios catódicos

Resumo

O presente trabalho aborda a importância da cor como código em telas computadorizadas, com base em uma revisão de literatura dos trabalhos publicados a partir de 1974 que enfocam a importância da cor e outros estímulos comparáveis em vários tipos de tarefa realizadas por meio de telas de raios catódicos (TRC).

Palavras-chave:

detecção de sinais; cor; display; telas de raios catódicos

Abstract

This paper /acuses on the effects of colour as a code in computorized displays. lt is based on a literature review of the studies published since 1974 which evaluate the efficiency of colour and other stimuli and their performance in dijferent tasks carried out on cathode ray tube (CRT) displays.
