  2. Pareidolia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareidolia

    Satellite photograph of a mesa in the Cydonia region of Mars, often called the "Face on Mars" and cited as evidence of extraterrestrial habitation. Pareidolia (/ ˌ p ær ɪ ˈ d oʊ l i ə, ˌ p ɛər-/; [1] also US: / ˌ p ɛər aɪ-/) [2] is the tendency for perception to impose a meaningful interpretation on a nebulous stimulus, usually visual, so that one detects an object, pattern, or ...

  3. Final approach - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_approach

    The final approach point is a point on a non-precision approach and is marked by a maltese cross symbol. In the United States, where the approach navigation aid is on the field and there is no symbol depicted, the final approach point is "where the aircraft is established inbound on the final approach course from the procedure turn and where ...

  4. Poggendorff illusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poggendorff_illusion

    The magnitude of the illusion depends on the properties of the obscuring pattern and the nature of its borders. [ 3 ] Many detailed studies of the illusion, including "amputating" various components [ 4 ] [ 5 ] point to its principal cause: acute angles in the figure are seen by viewers as expanded [ 6 ] [ 7 ] though the illusion diminishes or ...

  5. 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

  6. 3D reconstruction from multiple images - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_Reconstruction_from...

    The correspondence problem, finding matches between two images so the position of the matched elements can then be triangulated in 3D space is the key issue here. Once you have the multiple depth maps you have to combine them to create a final mesh by calculating depth and projecting out of the camera – registration. Camera calibration will ...

  7. Autostereogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autostereogram

    A stereoscope presents 2D images of the same object from slightly different angles to the left eye and the right eye, allowing the viewer to reconstruct the original object via binocular disparity. When viewed with the proper vergence, an autostereogram does the same, the binocular disparity existing in adjacent parts of the repeating 2D patterns.

  9. Disruptive coloration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disruptive_coloration

    For example, skunks, salamanders and monarch butterflies all have high contrast patterns that display their outlines. These advertising patterns exploit the opposite principle to disruptive coloration, for what is in effect the exactly opposite effect: to make the animal as conspicuous as possible. [ 9 ]
