On the relationship between deformation and perceived surface slant
نویسندگان
چکیده
A compelling impression of surface slant is produced by random dot displays depicting deformation and translation alone. A simple model of slant estimation based upon deformation is shown to capture quantitatively both the perceived slant in this situation and the distortion in perceived slant produced when constant deformation is added to random dot displays depicting moving slanted surfaces. The results confirm that deformation provides a simple account of perceived slant.

Speed gradients and the perception of surface slant: Analysis is two-dimensional not one-dimensional
Motion parallax provides cues to the three-dimensional layout of a viewed scene and, in particular, to surface tilt and slant. For example, as a textured surface, inclined around a horizontal axis, translates horizontally relative to an observer's view point, then, in the absence of head and eye movements, the observer's retinal flow will contain a one-dimensional (1D) vertical speed gradient. ...
متن کاملIllumination, Shading and the Perception of Local Orientation
We investigated the perception of local surface orientation on a simple smooth object, under several different illumination conditions. The perceived local orientation was determined for several points on the surface and quantified as slant and tilt of the local tangent plane. We found an underestimation of the perceived slant and a larger variance for the perceived tilt than for the perceived ...
متن کاملCharacterizations of Slant Ruled Surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space
In this study, we give the relationships between the conical curvatures of ruled surfaces generated by the unit vectors of the ruling, central normal and central tangent of a ruled surface in the Euclidean 3-space E^3. We obtain differential equations characterizing slant ruled surfaces and if the reference ruled surface is a slant ruled surface, we give the conditions for the surfaces generate...
متن کاملA distance judgment function based on space perception mechanisms: revisiting Gilinsky's (1951) equation.
In her seminal article in Psychological Review, A. S. Gilinsky (1951) successfully described the relationship between physical distance (D) and perceived distance (d) with the equation d = DA/(A + D), where A = constant. To understand its theoretical underpinning, the authors of the current article capitalized on space perception mechanisms based on the ground surface to derive the distance equ...
متن کاملMonocular and binocular edges enhance the perception of stereoscopic slant
Gradients of absolute binocular disparity across a slanted surface are often considered the basis for stereoscopic slant perception. However, perceived stereo slant around a vertical axis is usually slow and significantly under-estimated for isolated surfaces. Perceived slant is enhanced when surrounding surfaces provide a relative disparity gradient or depth step at the edges of the slanted su...
