Monocular Depth Cues
Captions available
The idea
Monocular depth cues require only one eye and include relative size, interposition, linear perspective, and texture gradient.
In practice
A photograph conveys depth convincingly despite being a flat surface viewed with both eyes.
Where people slip
Losing one eye removes binocular cues and leaves depth perception largely intact at distance.
