Depth Perception:

absolute distance:

relative distance:

1. Monocular depth cues:

a. Linear Perspective

 

 

 

b. texture gradient

 

 

c. aerial perspective:

 

 

 

d. proximity to the horizon:

 

 

e. shadow/shading:

 

 

e. interposition (a.k.a. occlusion):

 

 

 

f. motion parallax

 

g. accretion and deletion

 

 

2. Binocular depth cues:

 

a. Stereopsis (a.k.a. binocular disparity):

 

 

 

 

e.g. stereograms & autostereograms

 

 

 

 

Oculomotor Depth Cues:

a.convergence:

 

 

 

 

 

b. accommodation:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. Perception via Self Motion:

a. Optic Flow:
