AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -There are two main binocular cues that help us to judge distance: Disparity – each eye see a slightly different image because they are about 6 cm apart (on average). Your brain puts the two images it receives together into a single three-dimensional image.

Detailed explanation-2: -Binocular depth cues are the images taken in by both eyes to give depth perception, or stereopsis. Binocular cues create a three-dimensional image of the world one views. There are two types of binocular depth cues: convergence and retinal disparity. Convergence uses both eyes to focus on one object.

Detailed explanation-3: -Binocular cues are depth cues that require the use of two eyes. For instance, trying to touch the tip of two pencils together in front of your face may be rather easy to do with both eyes open; however, attempting this task with one eye open is significantly challenging.

Detailed explanation-4: -When both eyes see clearly and the brain processes a single image effectively, it is called stereopsis. People who rely on vision primarily in one eye (called monocular vision) may struggle with depth perception.

Detailed explanation-5: -Depth perception arises from a variety of depth cues. These are typically classified into binocular cues that are based on the receipt of sensory information in three dimensions from both eyes and monocular cues that can be represented in just two dimensions and observed with just one eye.
