- proximity- we group nearby figures together. We see not six separate lines, but three sets of two lines
- similarity- we group together figures that are similar to each other. We see the triangles and circles as vertical columns of similar shapes, not as horizontal rows of dissimilar shapes
- continuity- we perceive smooth, continuous patterns rather than discontinuous ones. The pattern at lower left could be a series of alternating semicircles, but we perceive it as two continuous lines— one wavy, one straight
- connectedness- because they are uniform and linked, we perceive the two dots and the line between them as a single unit
- closure- we fill in gaps to create a complete, whole object. We assume that the circles are complete but partially blocked by the illusory triangle. When lines are added to close off the circles, your brain no longer constructs a triangle.]]> 2017-12-04 13:24:21 UTC https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212825420 daryna_krupka https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212826965 The ability to see objects in three dimensions although the images that strike the retina are two-dimensional; allows us to judge distance]]> 2017-12-04 13:27:06 UTC https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212826965 daryna_krupka https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212828119 A laboratory device for testing depth perception in infants and young animals]]> 2017-12-04 13:29:23 UTC https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212828119 daryna_krupka https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212828218 Depth cues, such as retinal disparity and convergence, that depend on the use of two eyes]]> 2017-12-04 13:29:34 UTC https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212828218 daryna_krupka https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212828282 A binocular cue for perceiving depth: by comparing images from the eyeballs, the brain computes distance— the greater the disparity (difference) between the two images, the closer the object]]> 2017-12-04 13:29:43 UTC https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212828282 daryna_krupka https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212828392 A binocular cue for perceiving depth; the extent to which the eyes converge inward when looking at an object. The greater the inward strain, the closer the object]]> 2017-12-04 13:29:56 UTC https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212828392 daryna_krupka https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212828530 Depth cues, such as interposition and linear perspective, available to either eye alone
- relative size- smaller is more distant
- interposition- an object that blocks another is closer than the blocked object
- relative clarity- a hazy object is farther away than an object seen clearly
- texture gradient- when texture, coarse distinct objects are close and fine indistinct objects are distant
- relative height- objects higher in our field of vision are farther away
- relative motion/ motion parallax- when you are moving objects closer than a fixation point appears to move backward-the nearer the object, the faster it moves: objects beyond the fixation point appear to move with you
- linear perspective- the more two parallel lines converge, the farther away they are
- light and shadow- nearby objects reflect more light than faraway objects]]> 2017-12-04 13:30:13 UTC https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212828530 daryna_krupka https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212831156 We perceive the form of familiar objects as constant even while our retinal images of them change
- a door casts and increasingly trapezoidal image on our retinas as it opens, yet we still perceive it as rectangular]]> 2017-12-04 13:35:30 UTC https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212831156 daryna_krupka https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212831679 The monocular cues for distance (such as linear perspective and relative height) make the pursuing monster look larger than the pursued. It isn’t. 
This visual trick is based on the same principle as the fleeing monsters. The two red bars cast identical-sized images on our retinas. But experience tells us that a more distant object can create the same-sized image as a nearer one only if it is actually larger. As a result, we perceive the bar that seems farther away as larger.]]> 2017-12-04 13:36:36 UTC https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212831679 daryna_krupka https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212831735 The corners in our rectangularly carpentered world teach us to interpret “outward” or “inward” pointing arrowheads at the ends of a line as a cue to the line’s distance from us and so to it’s length. The red line defined by the corner at the ticket booth looks shorter than the red line defined by the room corner. But if you measure them, you will see that both are the same length.]]> 2017-12-04 13:36:43 UTC https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212831735 daryna_krupka https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212831890 The amount of light an object reflects relative to its surroundings. ]]> 2017-12-04 13:37:01 UTC https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/212831890 daryna_krupka https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/214478129 2017-12-08 13:46:55 UTC https://padlet.com/daryna_krupka/7ufx2r77jnaa/wish/214478129
