  2. Illusory motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illusory_motion

    Illusory motion is perceived as movement in a number of ways. The first can manifest through the retinal image where the motion flows across the retinal mosaic. The perceived motion can also manifest by the eyes changing position. In either case, an aftereffect may occur. [5] Peripheral drift illusion is another variety of perceived movement in ...

    An illusion of color difference or luminosity difference can be created when the luminosity or color of the area surrounding an unfamiliar object is changed. The luminosity of the object will appear brighter against a black field (that reflects less light) than against a white field, even though the object itself did not change in luminosity.

    Necker cube = reversible figure Penrose triangle = unrealizable object Kanizsa triangle = illusory contours. Visual illusions proper should be distinguished from some related phenomena. Some simple targets such as the Necker cube are capable of more than one interpretation, which are usually seen in alternation, one at a time. They may be ...
