  2. Ambiguous image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambiguous_image

    Ambiguous images or reversible figures are visual forms that create ambiguity by exploiting graphical similarities and other properties of visual system interpretation between two or more distinct image forms. These are famous for inducing the phenomenon of multistable perception. Multistable perception is the occurrence of an image being able ...

  3. Accidental viewpoint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accidental_viewpoint

    Psychologists have exploited the assumption of the generic viewpoint by using an accidental viewpoint to trick the brain into perceiving a scene that is realistically impossible. One famous example of this is the Ames room which uses distortion to create the image of a room that looks regular from an accidental viewpoint. When people interact ...

    Examples of visually ambiguous patterns. From top to bottom: Necker cube, Schroeder stairs and a figure that can be interpreted as black or white arrows. Multistable perception (or bistable perception) is a perceptual phenomenon in which an observer experiences an unpredictable sequence of spontaneous subjective changes.

  8. Visual perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_perception

    Visual perception is the ability to detect light and use it to form an image of the surrounding environment. [1] Photodetection without image formation is classified as light sensing. In most vertebrates, visual perception can be enabled by photopic vision (daytime vision) or scotopic vision (night vision

  9. Object recognition (cognitive science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_recognition...

    Visual object recognition refers to the ability to identify the objects in view based on visual input. One important signature of visual object recognition is "object invariance", or the ability to identify objects across changes in the detailed context in which objects are viewed, including changes in illumination, object pose, and background context.
