Detailed explanation-1: -Interposition is a monocular cue that occurs when one object obscures another, which causes the object that is partially covered to appear more distant. Because we only see part of what we expect, we interpret the object that is partially covered as being further away.
Detailed explanation-2: -n. a monocular depth cue occurring when two objects are in the same line of vision and the closer object, which is fully in view, partly conceals the farther object. Also called relative position.
Detailed explanation-3: -Interposition is a type of monocular cue in which one object partially obscures or covers another object, giving the perception the object that is partially covered is farther away. Interposition provides people with the feeling that they are perceiving depth.
Detailed explanation-4: -MONOCULAR CUE-HOW IT WORKS Objects that are farther away appear higher in the visual scene. Objects that are nearer block objects that are farther away. Lines that are parallel (e.g., railroad tracks) look like they come to a point in the distance. The farther the lines, the closer they are.
