psych sa (monocular cues)

Monocular cues

depth cues that are able to be perceived from one eye alone

Linear perspective

parallel lines appear to meet in the distance…the sharper the angle, the greater convergence so the greater perceived distance

Interpostition

interpose means to come between so if one object blocks the view of another we perceived it to be closer

relative size

if we assume that two objects are similar in size the one that creates a smaller retinal image is perceived as further away

Texture graident

if an object is closer we will be able to see finer details than ones that are further away

shadowing

larger theshadow the less perceived dist
