2 Monocular Cues

Monocular Cue: Visual cues to depth or distance, which can be used by one eye alone.

In the picture, we know that there is depth and distance just by looking at it.








The distance and depth is noticeable right away with one eye alone.

Figure-Ground Perception

Figure-Ground Perception: Relating to or denoting the perception of images by the distinction of objects from a background from which they appear to stand out

In the picture, the branches make a face but some people might not be able to notice that right away.

Binocular Cue

Binocular Cue- Information taken in by both eyes that aids in depth perception, including binocular convergence and retinal disparity.
The information is taken in by both eyes which causes depth perception in the picture. The viewer can notice that the picture continues.

Proximity

Proximity- We group nearby figures together

- We group these geese as a group in a "V" instead of  individual geese

Similarity

Similarity- We group together figures that are similar to one another

- We view this as a continuous diagonal line of O's instead of grouping dissimilar figures
ex: lines of X's and O's mixed

Continuity

Continuity- We perceive smooth, continuous pattern/lines rather than discontinuous ones

- We view these as continuous roads

Closure

Closure- We fill in the gaps to create a complete, whole object

- We connect the dots together to create a picture

Size Constancy

Perceive objects as having a constant size even when our distance from it varies 

Even though I got farther away from the dog and it appeared to be smaller, I knew it was the same size as before. 

Motion Perception

Being able to perceive and notice motion 

Because the backtound is blurry and the bike is in focus, you can tell the bike is moving. 

Shape Constancy

The tendency to perceive the shape of an object as being constant even when it's shape changes on the retina. 

We know the shape of a quarter is a circle even though when we turn it, it looks like an oval. 

Brightness Constancy

We perceive an object as having a constant lightness even while it's lumination may vary.

The page seems darker towards the crease because of the shadow however it is still the same .
