abstract：:A vertical grating appears tilted when surrounded by a tilted inducer grating: the tilt illusion. We investigated the inter-ocular transfer of the tilt illusion for gratings modulated along parallel or orthogonal vectors in a L-M and L+M+S cone contrast space. We found that the monocular component of the tilt illusion...

For a certain range of spatial frequencies, interference fringes drifting across the extrafoveal retina resemble two-dimensional spatial noise drifting in the opposite direction. For retinal locations within 10 deg of the fovea, the perceiv...
