  2. Perspective (graphical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_(graphical)

    Artists may choose to "correct" perspective distortions, for example by drawing all spheres as perfect circles, or by drawing figures as if centered on the direction of view. In practice, unless the viewer observes the image from an extreme angle, like standing far to the side of a painting, the perspective normally looks more or less correct.

  3. 3D projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_projection

    These projections rely on visual perspective and aspect analysis to project a complex object for viewing capability on a simpler plane. 3D projections use the primary qualities of an object's basic shape to create a map of points, that are then connected to one another to create a visual element. The result is a graphic that contains conceptual ...

  4. Pandemonium architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandemonium_architecture

    Pandemonium architecture is a theory in cognitive science that describes how visual images are processed by the brain. It has applications in artificial intelligence and pattern recognition. The theory was developed by the artificial intelligence pioneer Oliver Selfridge in 1959. It describes the process of object recognition as the exchange of ...

  5. Perspectival realism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspectival_realism

    In Caspar Hare's theory of perspectival realism, [1] there is a defining intrinsic property that the things that are in perceptual awareness have. Consider seeing object A but not object B. Of course, we can say that the visual experience of A is present to you, and no visual experience of B is present to you.

  6. Vanishing point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanishing_point

    For example, when α is the ground plane and β is the horizon plane, then the vanishing line of α is the horizon line β ∩ π. To put it simply, the vanishing line of some plane, say α , is obtained by the intersection of the image plane with another plane, say β , parallel to the plane of interest ( α ), passing through the camera center.

  7. Visual thinking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_thinking

    Visual thinking, also called visual or spatial learning or picture thinking, is the phenomenon of thinking through visual processing. [1] Visual thinking has been described as seeing words as a series of pictures. [2] [3] It is common in approximately 60–65% of the general population. [1] "Real picture thinkers", those who use visual thinking ...

  8. Donald D. Hoffman - Wikipedia

    The interface theory of perception is the idea that our perceptual experiences don't necessarily map onto what exists in the reality of itself. This is in contrast to the popular view of critical realism , which argues that some of our perceptual experiences map onto the reality of the natural world.

  9. Reality–virtuality continuum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reality–virtuality_continuum

    The reality–virtuality continuum therefore encompasses all possible variations and compositions of real and virtual objects. It has been described as a concept in new media and computer science . The concept was first introduced by Paul Milgram.
