  2. Illusory motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illusory_motion

    Billboards and other electronic signs use apparent motion to simulate moving text by flashing lights on and off as if the text is moving.. The term illusory motion, or motion illusion or apparent motion, refers to any optical illusion in which a static image appears to be moving due to the cognitive effects of interacting color contrasts, object shapes, and position. [1]

  3. Phi phenomenon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phi_phenomenon

    Example of beta movement. Phi phenomenon has long been confused with beta movement; however, the founder of Gestalt School of Psychology, Max Wertheimer, has distinguished the difference between them in 1912. While Phi phenomenon and Beta movement can be considered in the same category in a broader sense, they are quite distinct indeed.

  4. Apparent motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apparent_motion

    Beta movement, an illusion of movement where two or more still images are combined by the brain into surmised motion; Illusory motion, the appearance of movement in a static image; Phi phenomenon, an illusion of movement created when two or more adjacent lights blink on and off in succession

  5. Korte's third law of apparent motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korte's_third_law_of...

    The third law, particularly, describes how the increase in distance between two stimuli narrows the range of interstimulus intervals (ISI), which produce the apparent motion. [4] It holds that there is a requirement for the proportional decrease in the frequency in which two stimulators are activated in alternation with the increase in ISI to ...

  6. Ternus illusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternus_illusion

    Instead, apparent motion appears to arise from the visual system's processing of the physical properties of the percept. It is for this reason that apparent motion is a key area of research in the domain of vision research. [5] The Ternus illusion is perhaps one of the best examples of such an effect.

  7. List of optical illusions - Wikipedia

    Beta movement: Movement that appears to occur when fixed pictures turn on and off. Bezold Effect: An apparent change of tone of a colour due to the alteration of the colour of the background. Blivet: Also known as "poiuyt" or "devil's fork", this illusion is an impossible image because in reality the shape cannot exist. Café wall illusion

  8. Autokinetic effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autokinetic_effect

    The direction of the movements does not appear to be correlated with involuntary eye movements, but may be determined by errors between eye position and that specified by efference copy of the movement signals sent to the extraocular muscles. Richard Gregory suggested that, with lack of peripheral information, eye movements which correct ...

  9. Beta movement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_movement

    Example of the beta movement effect. The term beta movement is used for the optical illusion of apparent motion in which the very short projection of one figure and a subsequent very short projection of a more or less similar figure in a different location are experienced as one figure moving.
