  2. Depth perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_perception

    Depth sensation is the corresponding term for non-human animals, since although it is known that they can sense the distance of an object, it is not known whether they perceive it in the same way that humans do. [1] Depth perception arises from a variety of depth cues. These are typically classified into binocular cues and monocular cues ...

  3. Forced perspective - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_perspective

    Some notable examples of forced perspective in the parks, used to make the objects bigger, are the castles (Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Belle, Magical Dreams, and Enchanted Storybook). [22] One of the most notable examples of forced perspective being used to make the object appear smaller is The American Adventure pavilion in Epcot.

  4. List of optical illusions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_optical_illusions

    The Kinetic depth effect is the phenomenon whereby the three-dimensional structural form of a silhouette can be perceived when the object is moving. In the absence of other visual depth cues, this might be the only perception mechanism available to infer the object's shape.

  5. Picture superiority effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picture_superiority_effect

    Allan Paivio's dual-coding theory is a basis of picture superiority effect. Paivio claims that pictures have advantages over words with regards to coding and retrieval of stored memory because pictures are coded more easily and can be retrieved from symbolic mode, while the dual coding process using words is more difficult for both coding and retrieval.

  6. Stereoscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoscopy

    Stereoscopy is the production of the impression of depth in a photograph, movie, or other two-dimensional image by the presentation of a slightly different image to each eye, which adds the first of these cues . The two images are then combined in the brain to give the perception of depth. Because all points in the image produced by stereoscopy ...

  7. Müller-Lyer illusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Müller-Lyer_illusion

    In the Müller-Lyer illusion, the visual system would in this explanation detect the depth cues, which are usually associated with 3D scenes, and incorrectly decide it is a 3D drawing. Then the size constancy mechanism would make us see an erroneous length of the object which, for a true perspective drawing, would be farther away.

  8. Chromostereopsis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromostereopsis

    Blue–red contrast demonstrating depth perception effects 3 Layers of depths "Rivers, Valleys & Mountains". Chromostereopsis is a visual illusion whereby the impression of depth is conveyed in two-dimensional color images, usually of red–blue or red–green colors, but can also be perceived with red–grey or blue–grey images.

  9. Ambiguous image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambiguous_image

    The Necker Cube: a wire frame cube with no depth cues. Figures drawn in a way that avoids depth cues may become ambiguous. Classic examples of this phenomenon are the Necker cube, [6] and the rhombille tiling (viewed as an isometric drawing of cubes). To go further than just perceiving the object is to recognize the object.
