  2. Autostereogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autostereogram

    The top and bottom images produce a dent or projection depending on whether viewed with cross- () or wall- () eyed vergence. An autostereogram is a two-dimensional (2D) image that can create the optical illusion of a three-dimensional (3D) scene. Autostereograms use only one image to accomplish the effect while normal stereograms require two.

  3. Depth perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_perception

    Perspective, relative size, occultation and texture gradients all contribute to the three-dimensional appearance of this photo. Depth perception is the ability to perceive distance to objects in the world using the visual system and visual perception. It is a major factor in perceiving the world in three dimensions.

  4. Ponzo illusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponzo_illusion

    One of the explanations for the Ponzo illusion is the "perspective hypothesis", which states that the perspective feature in the figure is produced by the converging lines ordinarily associated with distance, that is, the two oblique lines appear to converge toward the horizon or a vanishing point. We interpret the upper line as though it were ...

  5. Vanishing point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanishing_point

    A vanishing point is a point on the image plane of a perspective rendering where the two-dimensional perspective projections of mutually parallel lines in three-dimensional space appear to converge. When the set of parallel lines is perpendicular to a picture plane, the construction is known as one-point perspective, and their vanishing point ...

  6. Binocular disparity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binocular_disparity

    Binocular disparity is the angle between two lines of projection . One of which is the real projection from the object to the actual point of projection. The other one is the imaginary projection running through the nodal point of the fixation point. In computer vision, binocular disparity is calculated from stereo images taken from a set of ...

  7. Ambiguous image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambiguous_image

    This allows the visual system to identify the edges of a complex image by identifying points where lines cross. For example, two lines crossed in an "X" shape will be perceived as two lines travelling diagonally rather than two lines changing direction to form "V" shapes opposite to each other.

  8. List of optical illusions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_optical_illusions

    The Vertical-horizontal illusion is the tendency for observers to overestimate the length of a vertical line relative to a horizontal line of the same length. Visual tilt effects: Wagon-wheel effect: White's illusion: Wundt illusion: The two red vertical lines are both straight, but they may look as if they are bowed inwards to some observers.

  9. Vergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vergence

    The two eyes converge to point to the same object. A vergence is the simultaneous movement of both eyes in opposite directions to obtain or maintain single binocular vision. [1] When a creature with binocular vision looks at an object, the eyes must rotate around a vertical axis so that the projection of the image is in the centre of the retina ...
