Vision sensation
perception
Dr Irene Karayianni
What basic processes underlie the sense of vision
How do we see colors
It all starts with light
focusing the light more sharply
Opening depends on the amount of light into the environment
Bends the rays of light so that they are properly focused on the rear of the eye
electromagnetic energy of light is converted to electrical impulses
Letrsquos zoom in
to check out the retina

Depth perception

distant objects appear to be closer together
For next time
Take photos to demonstrate any of the perception principles we discussed
Perceptual Constancy
objects are perceived as unvarying and consistent
despite changes in their appearance (size)
Motion Perception
Apparent moving perception that a stationary object is moving -
different areas of the retina are quickly stimulated leading us to
interpret motion
movement of an object across the retina (vs stable background)
image on the retina expands in size
all these rotating white dots are actually moving in straight lines
ldquoOur senses can be trusted but they can be easily fooledrdquo
Aristotle
httpswwwyoutubecomwatchv=OAVXHzAWS60
motion aftereffect
Certain neurons fire and are worn out they adapt to the motion
When you then shift your gaze to a stationary scene other competing
neurons over-compensate causing the illusion of movement in the other
direction
Which of the two red lines is shorter
Muumlller-Lyer illusion
Muumlller-Lyer illusion
One explanation
eye movements are greater when the arrow tips point inward making us perceive the
line as longer than it is when the arrow tips face outward
Muumlller-Lyer illusion
Another explanation
we unconsciously attribute particular significance to each of the lines
relatively more distant inside
corner
relatively more close outside
corner
These lines provide cues
for depth
Chubb illusion
apparent contrast of an object varies depending on context
Ebbinghaus illusion
apparent size of an object varies depending on context
apparent color of an object varies depending on context
Ponzo illusion
context is also fundamental for depth perception
We see the line as longer when we see cues that suggest it is further away
Ames room
many cues of depth perception have been
changed to give the illusion of equal depth

Hermann grid illusion
ldquoghostlikerdquo grey blobs perceived at the intersections of a
white grid on a black background
Hering illusion
the lined pattern on the background that simulates a
perspective design and creates a false impression of depth
Jastrow illusion
Necker cube

When looking directly at a ring our brains notice the motion of the spots anticlockwise
When looking at a ring in the peripheral vision our brains notice motion of stripes clockwise

Perceptual Constancy
objects are perceived as unvarying and consistent

Motion Perception
Apparent moving perception that a stationary object is moving -
different areas of the retina are quickly stimulated leading us to
interpret motion
movement of an object across the retina (vs stable background)
image on the retina expands in size

For next time
Take photos to demonstrate any of the perception principles we discussed
Perceptual Constancy
objects are perceived as unvarying and consistent
despite changes in their appearance (size)
Motion Perception
Apparent moving perception that a stationary object is moving -
different areas of the retina are quickly stimulated leading us to
interpret motion
movement of an object across the retina (vs stable background)
image on the retina expands in size
all these rotating white dots are actually moving in straight lines

motion aftereffect
Certain neurons fire and are worn out they adapt to the motion
When you then shift your gaze to a stationary scene other competing
neurons over-compensate causing the illusion of movement in the other
direction

Muumlller-Lyer illusion
Muumlller-Lyer illusion
One explanation
eye movements are greater when the arrow tips point inward making us perceive the
line as longer than it is when the arrow tips face outward
Muumlller-Lyer illusion
Another explanation
we unconsciously attribute particular significance to each of the lines
relatively more distant inside
corner
relatively more close outside
corner
These lines provide cues
for depth
Chubb illusion
apparent contrast of an object varies depending on context
Ebbinghaus illusion
apparent size of an object varies depending on context
apparent color of an object varies depending on context
Ponzo illusion
context is also fundamental for depth perception
We see the line as longer when we see cues that suggest it is further away
Ames room
many cues of depth perception have been
changed to give the illusion of equal depth

Muumlller-Lyer illusion
Muumlller-Lyer illusion
One explanation
eye movements are greater when the arrow tips point inward making us perceive the
line as longer than it is when the arrow tips face outward
Muumlller-Lyer illusion
Another explanation
we unconsciously attribute particular significance to each of the lines
relatively more distant inside
corner
relatively more close outside
corner
These lines provide cues
for depth
Chubb illusion
apparent contrast of an object varies depending on context
Ebbinghaus illusion
apparent size of an object varies depending on context
apparent color of an object varies depending on context
Ponzo illusion
context is also fundamental for depth perception
We see the line as longer when we see cues that suggest it is further away
Ames room
many cues of depth perception have been
changed to give the illusion of equal depth

Perceptual Constancy
objects are perceived as unvarying and consistent
despite changes in their appearance (size)
Motion Perception
Apparent moving perception that a stationary object is moving -
different areas of the retina are quickly stimulated leading us to
interpret motion
movement of an object across the retina (vs stable background)
image on the retina expands in size
all these rotating white dots are actually moving in straight lines

apparent contrast of an object varies depending on context
Ebbinghaus illusion
apparent size of an object varies depending on context
apparent color of an object varies depending on context
Ponzo illusion
context is also fundamental for depth perception
We see the line as longer when we see cues that suggest it is further away
Ames room
many cues of depth perception have been
changed to give the illusion of equal depth

the lined pattern on the background that simulates a

When looking directly at a ring our brains notice the motion of the spots anticlockwise
When looking at a ring in the peripheral vision our brains notice motion of stripes clockwise

motion aftereffect
Certain neurons fire and are worn out they adapt to the motion
When you then shift your gaze to a stationary scene other competing
neurons over-compensate causing the illusion of movement in the other
direction
Which of the two red lines is shorter
Muumlller-Lyer illusion
Muumlller-Lyer illusion
One explanation
eye movements are greater when the arrow tips point inward making us perceive the
line as longer than it is when the arrow tips face outward
Muumlller-Lyer illusion
Another explanation
we unconsciously attribute particular significance to each of the lines
relatively more distant inside
corner
relatively more close outside
corner
These lines provide cues
for depth
