    Impossible object: Irradiation illusion: Isometric illusion: An isometric illusion (also called an ambiguous figure or inside/outside illusion) is a type of optical illusion, specifically one due to multistable perception. Jastrow illusion: The Jastrow illusion is an optical illusion discovered by the American psychologist Joseph Jastrow in ...

    Penrose triangle. The Penrose triangle, also known as the Penrose tribar, the impossible tribar, [1] or the impossible triangle, [2] is a triangular impossible object, an optical illusion consisting of an object which can be depicted in a perspective drawing.

    Optical illusion is also used in film by the technique of forced perspective. Op art is a style of art that uses optical illusions to create an impression of movement, or hidden images and patterns. Trompe-l'œil uses realistic imagery to create the optical illusion that depicted objects exist in three dimensions.

    An optical illusion is any illusion that deceives the human visual system into perceiving something that is not present or incorrectly perceiving what is present. Contents Top

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_perspective

    Forced perspective is a technique that employs optical illusion to make an object appear farther away, closer, larger or smaller than it actually is. It manipulates human visual perception through the use of scaled objects and the correlation between them and the vantage point of the spectator or camera.

    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

  8. Persistence of vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persistence_of_vision

    Persistence of vision is the optical illusion that occurs when the visual perception of an object does not cease for some time after the rays of light proceeding from it have ceased to enter the eye. [1] The illusion has also been described as "retinal persistence", [2] "persistence of impressions", [3] simply "persistence" and other variations ...

    An illusion device is how illusion optics works—without a device there is no way to define how light is refracted and deflected. Based on a study on circular objects with illusion optic properties, (i.e. negative refraction indexes) there are three basics of an illusion device: the invisibility cloak, real object, and illusion object.
