Street artists often use tricks of ...
The Hollow-Face illusion is an optical illusion in which the perception of a concave mask of a face appears as a normal convex face. Hybrid image: A Hybrid image is an optical illusion developed at MIT in which an image can be interpreted in one of two different ways depending on viewing distance. Illusory contours
A hybrid image is an image that is perceived in one of two different ways, depending on viewing distance, based on the way humans process visual input.

The toy has traditionally been thought to demonstrate the principle of persistence of vision , a disputed explanation for the cause of illusory motion in stroboscopic ...
