En este artículo se revisan los principales resultados experimentales acerca del papel que desempeñan, en el procesamiento visual, el contraste cromático y el contraste de luminancia. Se analiza la participación de ambos en el procesamiento de la profundidad y el movimiento; exponiendo los diferentes planteamientos teóricos y la evidencia experimental que avala cada uno de ellos.
