The size illusion: visual and kinaesthetic information in size perception.

abstract：:Since most natural surfaces are complex and vary in amplitude and spatial frequency, it might be interesting to consider gratings not in the spatial domain, but in the spatial-frequency domain. Detection thresholds for amplitude modulation (AM) and frequency modulation (FM) in sinusoidal gratings were measured for sev...

We report that when the image moves smoothly, the snakes do not appear to rotate, although the retinal images are continuously refreshed. Therefore, to produce the illusion, the image should remain stationary (without being refreshe...
