Depth cues

Clues about distance based on the image of one eye.

• binocular depth cues
• monocular depth cues
• subliminal stimulation

Clues about distance requiring two eyes.

• monocular depth cues
• place theory
• binocular depth cues

Which of the following is not a monocular cue for depth?

• convergence
• texture gradient
• linear perspective
• shadowing

A binocular cue that allows for depth perception when images from the two eyes differ 

• Relative size 
• Color Constancy
• Linear perception
• Retinal Disparity

You are an artist and you are interested in completing a painting that gives a three-dimensional appearance.  You want to show a beach in the foreground of the painting, people swimming in the ocean, and sailboats in the distance.  Which perceptual principles will be most helpful as you complete your painting?

•  binocular depth cues
• monocular depth cues
• Gestalt principles of proximity and continuity
  
• perceptual principles only operate in “real life” situations
  

This is an example of what type of monocular depth cue?

• Texture gradient

• Linear perspective

• interposition

• motion parallax

We rely on binocular vision to

• perceive depth
• see colors
• understand optical illusions
• see motion

A 3-D movie enhances our sense of depth perception by simulating the effects of

• interposition.
• retinal disparity.
• perceptual constancy. 
• gestalt cues.

Binocular vision

• overlapping fields of vision from two eyes
• eyes and brain working together to determine what an object is
• what we see is different than what the brain "expects" to see
• brain remembering images for a short time and combining them

When the brain detects that the tension in the eye muscles is changing as the eyes turn inwards

• convergence

• Monocular depth cue

• accommodation

• retinal disparity
