    A common example is the color variation that appears in pearlescent automobile finishes or "metallic" paper; e.g., Kodak Endura Metallic, Fujicolor Crystal Archive Digital Pearl. Observer metameric failure or observer metamerism can occur because of differences in color vision between observers.

  3. Geometrical-optical illusions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrical-optical_illusions

    The widely accepted interpretation of, e.g. the Poggendorff and Hering illusions as manifestation of expansion of acute angles at line intersections, is an example of successful implementation of a "bottom-up," physiological explanation of a geometrical–optical illusion. Ponzo illusion in a purely schematic form and, below, with perspective clues

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fechner_color

    The Fechner color effect is an illusion of color seen when looking at certain rapidly changing or moving black-and-white patterns. They are also called pattern induced flicker colors (PIFCs). A sample of a Benham's top (animated version) The effect is most commonly demonstrated with a device known as Benham's top (also called Benham's disk ...

    The Hering illusion (1861): When two straight and parallel lines are presented in front of radial background (like the spokes of a bicycle), the lines appear as if they were bowed outwards. Hollow-Face illusion: 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.

    In addition to the gestalt principles of perception, water-color illusions contribute to the formation of optical illusions. Water-color illusions consist of object-hole effects and coloration. Object-hole effects occur when boundaries are prominent where there is a figure and background with a hole that is 3D volumetric in appearance.

    The exhibition focused on the perceptual aspects of art, which result both from the illusion of movement and the interaction of color relationships. The exhibition was a success with the public (visitor attendance was over 180,000), [ 12 ] but less so with the critics. [ 13 ]

  8. Peripheral drift illusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_drift_illusion

    Illusion similar to Rotating Snakes. Rotating snakes is an optical illusion developed by Professor Akiyoshi Kitaoka in 2003. [1] A type of peripheral drift illusion, the "snakes" consist of several bands of color which resemble coiled serpents. Although the image is static, the snakes appear to be moving in circles.

  9. Müller-Lyer illusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Müller-Lyer_illusion

    The Müller-Lyer effect in a non-illusion. One possible explanation, given by Richard Gregory, [14] is that the Müller-Lyer illusion occurs because the visual system learns that the "angles in" configuration corresponds to a rectilinear object, such as the convex corner of a room, which is closer, and the "angles out" configuration corresponds to an object which is far away, such as the ...
