Monocular 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

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

• Texture gradient

• Linear perspective

• interposition

• motion parallax

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

Retinal disparity occurs because

• the eyes converge on a particular object and thus they look disparate

• the brain detects a change in the eye muscles

• each retina receives a slightly different visual image due to their distance apart

• we are all unique and different.

The apparent convergence of parallel lines as they recede

• linear perspective

• height in the visual field

• relative size

• accommodation

When we perceive more detail things are usually

• bigger

• closer to us

• further from us

• more expensive

The object that appears farther away looks smaller. This is an example of what type of monocular depth cue?

• Texture gradient

• Linear perspective

• Interposition

• Relative Size

The blue circle appears closer due to what monocular cue?

• Shadow

• Linear perspective

• Interposition

• Relative Size
