editRudolf Lunebherg is an early mathematical psychophysicist. He proposed that visual space has a Hyperbolic Reimannian curvature in 1946. Subsequent experimentation (Indowe and Watanbe 1981) has shown this to be likely true. THis is a matter of consequence for cognitive science, vision science, robotics, and psychophysics The proposed curvature is shown to be a function of binocularity and a measure of depth based on disparity. The agreement with experiment suggests the majority of our depth perception is a function of these variables.

- Could you please elaborate on the Indowe and Watanbe 1981 citation? I can't find a suitable paper. Thanks --DrJunge (talk) 19:03, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Wrong name
editHi, his birth name ist Rudolf Karl Lüneburg as seen in his doctor thesis. please correct the lemma. --Cepheiden (talk) 14:52, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Luneberg
editBecause of the widespread use of Luneberg in conjunction with the lens I would include this 'falsified name' in the list of names. -- DrJunge (talk) 19:59, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
To further the cause, it was under the misspelled name of Luneberg that the first edition of Mathematical Theory of Optics was published in 1944. Hence the widespread use of the wrong name. A note to this regard can be found in foreword of the 1964 reprint. -- DrJunge (talk) 13:48, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
