The tilt-constancy theory of visual illusions.
The authors argue that changes in the perception of vertical and horizontal caused by local visual cues can account for many classical visual illusions. Because the perception of orientation is influenced more by visual cues than gravity-based cues when the observer is tilted (e.g., S. E. Asch & H. A. Witkin, 1948), the authors predicted that the strength of many visual illusions would increase...
متن کاملHaptic Shape Constancy Across Distance
To explore haptic shape constancy across distance, we measured perceived curvature thresholds of cylindrical shapes, cut out of acetal resin blocks. On each trial, blindfolded observers used their bare finger to scan the surface of two of the shapes consecutively. One shape was close to the observer and the other positioned further away. This spatial displacement changes the available proprioce...
متن کاملColor constancy and hue scaling.
In this study, we used a hue scaling technique to examine human color constancy performance in simulated three-dimensional scenes. These scenes contained objects of various shapes and materials and a matte test patch at the center of the scene. Hue scaling settings were made for test patches under five different illuminations. Results show that subjects had nearly stable hue scalings for a give...
متن کاملHaptic Illusions induced by Tactile Flow
In this paper we report on a set of experiments involving perceptual illusions elicited by dynamic tactile stimulation of fingertips. These misperceptions are akin to some well studied optical illusions, which have been given an explanation in terms of the mechanisms of optic flow perception. We hypothesize that a similar perceptual mechanism exists for tactile flow, which is related to how hum...
متن کاملGeometrical haptic illusions: the role of exploration in the Müller-Lyer, vertical-horizontal, and Delboeuf illusions.
This article surveys studies of the occurrence, in the haptic modality, of three geometrical illusions well known in vision, and it discusses the nature of the processes underlying these haptic illusions. We argue that the apparently contradictory results found in the literature concerning them may be explained, at least partially, by the characteristics of manual exploratory movements. The Mül...
