Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Linear perspective is the monocular depth cue that creates the impression of depth by using converging lines. This is commonly used in art to create the illusion of 3D space on a 2D surface. Convergence and binocular disparity are binocular depth cues that require the use of both eyes, while stereoscopic imagery refers specifically to the use of stereoscopes or other devices to create 3D images.
