"In a notable research paper titled "Improving the legibility of visual display units through contrast reversal" (1980)"
.... 1980. Is there nothing more recent? IDK, maybe one that takes into account for the reading surface emitting light, not just reflecting it?
Also: why did you link "research paper" to Sensory Perception & Interaction Research Group list of projects and not the actual research you were referring to?
First off, thanks for taking the time to read this post and adding your comments, we truly appreciate it.
The science of readability or accessibility is by no means new, and some of the best research comes from advertising works in the early 80s. In my opinion, this information is still relevant today. The "In a notable research paper titled "Improving the legibility of visual display units through contrast reversal" (1980)" comes from numerous Dark & Light user interface papers, blogs post and articles I read before creating this post. It has been quoted numerous times over as the foundation to what we are discussing today.
In terms of the link, it seems to have been removed and replaced with what you have identified. Weird !!! I will make small adjustments to the article to ensure everything is connected as it should be.
There are many interesting links to the Dark vs Light ui battle:
