### Spatial Localization
## Spatial Localization

NASA conducted research on the perception of color, and found that luminance contrast mattered greatly as to how colors are perceived. The two images below are from NASA research, specifically, from the article, "[Designing With Blue](https://colorusage.arc.nasa.gov/blue_2.php)"

![Comparison of the stability of the spatial localization of yellow vs. red. Both are roughly isoluminant with their backgrounds. The misalignment and gap between the chromatic bars and black bars is physically the same for the yellow and red but much less visually obvious for the yellow.](yellow_edge_3.gif) ![Comparison of the stability of the spatial localization of yellow vs. red.

"_**Spatial Localization.** Symbols which have the same luminance as their background are perceptually less securely located in space and time than are symbols with higher luminance contrast. They tend to "float" visually or be "captured" by adjacent symbols with high luminance-contrast. The phenomenon seems to be especially problematic for symbol/background combinations that differ only in the blue channel._"

### Distance between stripes
## Distance between stripes

Photosensitive seizures may be caused by static images as well as animation. The mechanism for this is poorly understood, but is believed to be linked to "gamma oscillations" set up in the brain. These oscillations in the brain are a different kind of response than other kinds of neurological responses believed to cause photosensitive seizures.

### Text and padding
## Text and padding

WCAG standards for contrast perception do not take into account the effect of padding. For example, blue text on a gray background is easier to perceive if it is surrounded "locally" by black than by white. There is such a thing as "local" adaptation to colors. The bottom line: padding matters.

### Math
## Math

Spatial reasoning affects Math learning; consequently, spatial relationships in how math is presented affects cognition. The web developer can do something about this in the manner in which they display math. Animation figures strongly in this arena. For example, "how" an object looks when it is rotated, from different angles, how they look sliced, and how they relate to each other in space all make a difference in an ability to understand Math in spatial terms.

### Braille
## Braille

Modern technology enables non-experts to print Braille. Adobe Illustrator, for example, allows one to Typeset ADA Braille for printing out.
