Complementary spatial locations, width, and disparity
Abstract:
An alternative analysis is offered for human depth perception in addition to the depth cue of disparity. The new analysis considers locations both proximal and distal to the fixation point and offers an explanation as to why a stimulus presented at one disparity sign may be mistakenly considered to possess the opposite sign. Three descriptions of applications, the Pulfrich phenomenon, an interpretation of the Hornbostel effect (the three-dimensional Necker cube), and the determination of the limits of stereoscopic vision, are discussed. In addition the new analysis discloses a particular advantage of binocular over monocular vision which had not been appreciated formerly. The new analysis offers a powerful analytical tool of simple mathematical form. The means of conversion from the new analysis to and from disparity is included. In addition the similarity between the new approach and the classical lens equation is examined.

Interference: Path Lengths
Two special sources may be considered when they are in phase. This can be easily achieved by feeding the two sources from the same source. An example would be synchronizing the two speakers by feeding them with the same source, such as the sound waves produced by a tuning fork. This setup ensures that the two sources have the same frequency and are...
