  3. Binocular rivalry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binocular_rivalry

    Binocular rivalry was discovered by Porta. [6] Porta put one book in front of one eye, and another in front of the other. He reported that he could read from one book at a time and that changing from one to the other required withdrawing the "visual virtue" from one eye and moving it to the other.

  4. Vergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vergence

    It is a type of vergence eye movement and is done by extrinsic muscles. Diplopia, commonly referred to as double vision, can result if one of the eye's extrinsic muscles are weaker than the other. This results because the object being seen gets projected to different parts of the eye's retina, causing the brain to see two images.

  5. Anaglyph 3D - Wikipedia

    Red-cyan filters can be employed because our vision processing systems use red and cyan comparisons, as well as blue and yellow, to determine the color and contours of objects. [ 11 ] In a red-cyan anaglyph, the eye viewing through the red filter sees red within the anaglyph as "white", and the cyan within the anaglyph as "black".

  8. Stereopsis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereopsis

    Binocular vision has further advantages aside from stereopsis, in particular the enhancement of vision quality through binocular summation; persons with strabismus (even those who have no double vision) have lower scores of binocular summation, and this appears to incite persons with strabismus to close one eye in visually demanding situations.

  9. Eye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye

    Because the aperture of an eyelet is larger than the facets of a compound eye, this arrangement allows vision under low light levels. [1] Good fliers such as flies or honey bees, or prey-catching insects such as praying mantis or dragonflies, have specialised zones of ommatidia organised into a fovea area which gives acute vision. In the acute ...
