Proximity: the tendency we have to group together objects that are nearby each other
example: Constellations are no more than our perceptions of the stars. The stars of the big dipper are not related at all besides the fact that when connected they form the image of a dipper.
Monocular Cues (Linear Perspective): allows us to perceive the depth and
distance of an object. A monocular cue is any depth cue that can be processed by using one eye alone. This is in contrast to binocular cues that require the use of both eyes to perceive distance and depth.
Example: looking at a road in the distance, the road appears to grow narrower as it gets farther away, when in reality the road down there is the same width as the road you are currently on.
Motion Perspective (Phi Phenomenon): is the illusion of perceiving continuous motion between separate objects viewed rapidly in succession.
Example: flip books are simply a number of images flipped in succession, which we perceive as a solid moving image, much like a film.
