| Popis: | A new motion – depth illusion is reported. When a curved aperture translates vertically and stationary horizontal lines can be seen through it, the line lengths on the retina change continuously because of the occlusion. Instead of seeing the aperture translate, subjects sometimes see the lines rotate in depth around a vertical axis. This is a rare kind of illusion: an ambiguous motion which can be seen as either stationary in two dimensions or rotating in three dimensions. Three-dimensional rotation was more often observed when the luminance difference between the horizontal lines and the background was larger than that between the aperture and the background. This illusion demonstrates that motion detection and the structure-from-motion process correlate with figure – ground segregation, depth stratification, and figural-completion processes based on luminance contrast. |
