Question 1

Question
What is size constancy?
Answer
  • Size constancy is a binocular depth cue in which the brain scales an image up or down even when the distance it has from us changes.
  • Size constancy is a monocular depth cue in which the bigger the object is the nearer it seems to us and vice versa.

Question 2

Question
What are 'depth cues'?
Answer
  • Depth cues are the visual clues we use to perceive the distance/depth of an object.
  • Depth cues are the details in the image which hint open it's size of the object.

Question 3

Question
Describe what a monocular depth cue is?
Answer
  • Monocular depth cues are clues to distance that needs 2 eyes.
  • Monocular depth cues are clues to distance that need 1 eye.

Question 4

Question
What is height-of-the-plane?
Answer
  • It is a monocular depth cue, where things closer to the horizon appear closer to us than things below or above the horizon.
  • It is a binocular depth cue, where things closer to the horizon appear closer to us than things below or above the horizon.

Question 5

Question 10

Question
How does our brain perceive third dimension?
Answer
  • Part of the process involves picking up depth cues from the image the brain receive allows from the retina. These allow brain to detect depth.
  • The brain perceives the image that falls on the retina using binocular depth cues.

Question 11

Question
What is stereopsis?
Answer
  • Stereopsis is a binocular cue to depth, the bigger the difference between the view seen by the left and right eye, the closer the viewer is looking.
  • Steropsis is a binocular cue to depth in which an object is made to look normal by your right and left eye comparing it.

Question 12

Question
What is stereopsis?
Answer

Describe what a binocular depth cue is?
Answer
  • Binocular depth cues are what your blind spot fills in.
  • Binocular depth cues are depth cues with two eyes.

Question 14

Question
Which of these is the correct definition of size constancy??
Answer
  • When we see objects we know at different distances away from us, we use size constancy. An object that is far away will make a small image on the retina. An object that is right in front of us will make a big image on the retina. Size constancy adjusts vision to make objects appear normal in size.
