  1. DEPTH AND SIZE PERCEPTION • Problems for Perceiving Depth and Size • Oculomotor Cues • Monocular Cues • Binocular Disparity • Size Constancy

  2. Problems for Depth and Size Perception • The proximal stimulus is 2d, but the distal stimulus is 3d • Size of the image is dependent on distance

  3. Oculomotor Cues • Information about eye position and eye muscles

  4. Accommodation • lenses are curved more to focus on closer objects • not useful for distances more than 10 feet

  5. Convergence • eyes rotate inwards to focus on near objects • not useful for distances more than 10 feet

  6. Pictorial Monocular Cues • occlusion - partly covered objects perceived as more distant • relative size - larger objects perceived as closer • familiar size - objects known to be larger are perceived as farther away than objects known to be smaller

  7. Pictorial Monocular Cues • relative height - higher objects perceived as more distant • linear perspective - parallel lines converge with more distance

  8. Muller-Lyer Illusion

  9. Pictorial Monocular Cues • texture gradient - finer textures perceived as more distant • shadows - shaded areas perceived as further from light source • atmospheric perspective - more distant objects appear blurred and bluish

  10. Movement-Produced Monocular Cues • movement parallax - closer objects move faster and in the opposite direction • deletion and accretion - covering and uncovering of objects

  11. Binocular Disparity • Retinal images are different because the eyes are separated • The closer the object, the greater the binocular disparity

  12. Binocular Disparity • Horopter - imaginary circle on which objects are focused at the same points on both retinas • Angle of disparity - difference in location of points on the two retinas; increases with distance from the horopter

  13. Binocular Disparity • Crossed disparity - for objects in front of the horopter, the images move out toward the sides of the retinas • Uncrossed disparity - for objects behind the horopter, the images move inward on the retinas

  14. Size Constancy • The size of an object is perceived as constant even when the size of the retinal image changes • size-distance scaling - perceived size is based on retinal size and perceived distance

  15. Emmert’s Law • The more distant an afterimage appears to be, the larger it will seem • S = K(RxD) S - apparent size K - constant R - retinal image size D - perceived distance
