Die Prüfung der Sehwahrnehmungen erfolgte in der Klinik stufenweise mit dem eigens dafür entwickelten Sehtest BaLM /9/ in Verbindung mit einem Test der Gittersehschärfe BaGA und einem modifizierten Landolt-C-Test FrACT (Fig.2).
I've checked several glossaries and dictionaries and I haven't been able to find this term. While "Sehschärfe" is clear, I'm not able to determine what the "Gitter" portion of the word means.
Any help would be appreciated.

grating acuity
Grating acuity was measured using the BaGA computer program...We employed nonparametric statistical tests to conduct our analysis. Figure 4 is a box plot that summarizes our results for BaLM (light perception, time resolution, location, and motion tasks) and BaGA grating acuity tasks...All subjects performed 11 computer-based psychophysical tests from three programs: Basic Assessment of Light Motion, Basic Assessment of Grating Acuity, and the Freiburg Vision Test as well as a modified Tangent Screen. Assessments were performed at baseline and again using the BrainPort after 15 hours of training.
