perceptible
Can be detected
Perceptible means able to be perceived—detectable by the senses or the mind.
A perceptible change in someone's expression is one you can actually notice.
The word often appears with negatives: no perceptible difference, barely perceptible.
Something imperceptible falls below the threshold of detection.
