Does Motion Increase Perceived Magnitude of Translucency?

The visual mechanisms behind our ability to distinguish translucent and opaque materials is not fully understood. Disentanglement of the contributions surface reflectance subsurface light transport still image structure an ill-posed problem. While overwhelming majority works addressing translucency perception use static stimuli, behavioral studies show that human observers tend move objects assess their translucency. Therefore, we hypothesize appear more less when observed in motion than shown as images. In this manuscript, report two psychophysical experiments conducted using dynamic stimuli investigate how affects perceived
