  2. Aerial perspective - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerial_perspective

    Aerial perspective, or atmospheric perspective, refers to the effect the atmosphere has on the appearance of an object as viewed from a distance. As the distance between an object and a viewer increases, the contrast between the object and its background decreases, and the contrast of any markings or details within the object also decreases.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_optics

    Atmospheric optics is "the study of the optical characteristics of the atmosphere or products of atmospheric ... but appear to diverge because of linear perspective. ...

  4. Sensory illusions in aviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_illusions_in_aviation

    The head-up illusion involves a sudden forward linear acceleration during level flight where the pilot perceives the illusion that the nose of the aircraft is pitching up. The pilot's response to this illusion would be to push the yoke or the stick forward to pitch the nose of the aircraft down.

  5. Perspective distortion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_distortion

    Note that linear perspective changes are caused by distance, not by the lens per se – two shots of the same scene from the same distance will exhibit identical perspective geometry, regardless of lens used. However, since wide-angle lenses have a wider field of view, they are generally used from closer, while telephoto lenses have a narrower ...

  6. Perspective (graphical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_(graphical)

    Linear or point-projection perspective (from Latin perspicere ' to see through ') is one of two types of graphical projection perspective in the graphic arts; the other is parallel projection. [ citation needed ] [ dubious – discuss ] Linear perspective is an approximate representation, generally on a flat surface, of an image as it is seen ...

  7. Reverse perspective - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_perspective

    Reverse perspective, also called inverse perspective, [1] inverted perspective, [2] divergent perspective, [3] [4] or Byzantine perspective, [5] is a form of perspective drawing where the objects depicted in a scene are placed between the projective point and the viewing plane.

  8. Depth perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_perception

    Perspective, relative size, occultation and texture gradients all contribute to the three-dimensional appearance of this photo. Depth perception is the ability to perceive distance to objects in the world using the visual system and visual perception.

  9. Ponzo illusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponzo_illusion

    One of the explanations for the Ponzo illusion is the "perspective hypothesis", which says that the perspective feature in the figure is produced by the converging lines ordinarily associated with distance; the two oblique lines appear to converge toward the horizon or a vanishing point. We interpret the upper line as though it were further ...
