Paragraph In my science fair project I tested whether gender matter in the way people see optical illusions. I tested this because it sounded fascinating, and also interesting. Optical Illusions now in day, it’s used in many ways. They can be used as a way to trick people, to learn about sensory perception, and to learn about how the brain perceives lighter values and dark values.

Illusions can be early illusions, twentieth century illusions, twenty-first century illusions, and new illusions. Optical illusions started out in ancient Greece. John R. Opel made one of the earliest optical illusion in 1854. Many optical illusions have been found in cave paintings. An optical illusion is not appraised as an invention, but instead the result of a man mimicking the geometric form seen in nature. First, our eyes skim, then our brains tend to jump to conclusions. The impact on

One wonders what an optical illusion is, “an optical illusion is a visually perceived image that differs from reality.” (Eifrig, 2014, n.p.).

Meanwhile Emmert’s Law did not involved any optical illusions, therefore Emmert regarded the perceived sizes of the objects in the after image as a reaction of the body to continue psychological function. According to Emmert’s Law the perceptual constancy was thought to happen by multiple depth perception cues that include; binocular vision, linear perspective and monocular cue. In contrast to Emmert’s Law in Ames Room Illusion there are 2 illusions that take place. By looking through a peeping

1.) Visual Search - In this activity I participated in a classic psychological experiment that uses visual search tasks to explore fundamental process of visual perception and attention. In general I learned that selective attention filters enable us to make more automatic decisions about the stimuli around us, including which items to pay attention to during a visual search. Also, since your brain is always active and sees visual sights and sensory information, your mind copes by automatically screening

In regards to the Mueller-Lyer illusion, the textbook mentions how “Rivers stated that most English saw the two lines more differently than any other cultural groups such as India or New Guinea” (Juang & Matsumoto, Chapter 5, pg. 122).

Escher were masters of the craft of illusion in art. For example, in 1892 Charles Allan Gilbert drew a picture that he called “All is Vanity”. This piece of artwork is an ambiguous optical illusion using a skull, which has been the object of many pieces of this type, where we see more than one thing in the picture.

induce. Those effects, on the realistic side, being autostereograms, and on the illusionary side, being afterimages and even illness. After the invention of the camera obscura, Bazin claims that “the artist was now in a position to create the illusion of three-dimensional space within which things appeared to exist as our eyes in reality see them.” He also claimed that photographers and artist attempted to “duplicate the outside world” And so they did. Artists were able to create 2d paintings
