Monocular Cues -
Relative Size: When something appears to be either larger or smaller depending on its position in relation to an object of known size.
The moon appears to be larger than it is because of its position in relation to the horizon.
Relative Clarity: We percieve hazy, indistinct objects as being farther away than sharp, clear objects.
Relative Height: The height of an object reflects the perception of how close or far away it is.
Because of the positioning and differences in height in this painting, the elephant in the top right corner appears to be farther away from the viewer, even though all three were painted on a flat surface.
Monocular Cues Cont. -
Interposition: Occurs when one object overlaps another, creating what the viewer perceives as depth.
Texture Gradient: Where there is a gradual change in detail, from highly detailed to less detailed, or vice versa
Binocular Cue -
Retinal disparity: How your right and left eyes display slightly different images. These then combine to form the full image that is processed by the brain.
Convergence: In order to properly perceive depth, the eyes must move slightly inward, or converge. This enables us to be able to tell how far away something is.
