  1. Seeing in 3D what makes the world seem solid?

  2. we live in a 3D world • but we only experience a single point of it • our eyes, ears and brains have a developed many methods to see and hear in 3D

  3. passive effects some 3D effects don’t depend on our eyes at all, just the external appearance of the world this is why things in ordinary photographs can look solid the same effects are used in paintings

  4. a flat world?

  5. shadows and high lighting

  6. but which is closer?

  7. occlusion

  8. semantic cues which is closer?

  9. semantic cues • same thing . . . closer = bigger • ‘normal sizes’ tell us distance • or compare with known objects • including own body

  10. Blue hazing with distance • look at a distant hill or building • fuzzy, less contrast, bluish tinge • scattering effect of air • brains get used to it: • blue objects seem further away • red ones closer • use in visualisation and VR(also used in garden design!)

  11. Perspective

  12. static eye effects another set of 3D experiences arise because of the movement of the eyes and the way we have to look to see objects

  13. binocular/stereo vision

  14. stereo vision - at the limits large distance angles get small angular distinction less too so harder to distinguish small differences

  15. focus • focus our eyes on object of attention • closer and further objects are blurred • some idea of absolute and relative distance

  16. conflict! • real life ... depth of focus = stereo distance • VR headset twin images for stereo distance fixed focus on ‘screens’  confused brain

  17. Parallax between eyes

  18. Height of head – looking down smaller angle = further away

  19. dynamic effects movement is also important especially for more distant objects where stereo vision and other eye effects are less precise

  20. Parallax effects due to sideways movement

  21. Rate of approach • you approach some objects • closer ones grow larger more quickly • distant ones more slowly

  22. Hearing in 3D too?

  23. binaural hearing - stereo sound sound reaches one ear before the other difference gives location but only left-right 1D not 3D!

  24. True 3D sound distorted by head, pinnae and ear lobes each ear gets different kind of sound allows 3D positioning of sounds only works for ‘natural sounds’
