Stereoscopic depth perception requires the brain to detect ____.
A) amblyopia
B) retinal disparity
C) strabismus
D) contrasting imagery

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stereoscopic depth perception requires the brain to detect retinal disparity, which is the difference in the image received by each eye. This disparity allows the brain to calculate distance and depth perception. Amblyopia and strabismus are conditions that can affect depth perception, but they are not necessary for stereoscopic depth perception. Contrasting imagery may help with depth perception, but it is not the specific cue that is utilized for stereoscopic depth perception.
