Illumination and Tilt as Factors in the Legibility of Reflex-reflective Numerals by Clarke W. Crannell,Anthony Debons Pdf
"AND 10400 digits made of reflex-reflective material and placed on a black background were found to be superior in identifiability to black digits on white or aluminum backgrounds at distances greater than 400 feet and also at lesser distances when the digits are tilted from the vertical axis. When the angle of observation is perpendicular to neither the vertical nor horizontal axis, legibility of digits of all types is reduced. At 500 feet, increases in illumination resulted in negligible improvement in legibility of the reflex-reflective digits."--Abstract
