Perceptual limits on low-dimensional models of Munsell reflectance spectra.

abstract：:We investigated the effect of an observer's hand postures on visual motion perception using the stream/bounce display. When two identical visual objects move across collinear horizontal trajectories toward each other in a two-dimensional display, observers perceive them as either streaming or bouncing. In our previous...

In the present study we show a new way for depth to be assigned in the absence of binocular correspo...
