Stereokinetic Effect (SKE)

Tietoja

Rotation of adequate figures creates a three-dimensional illusion. It can take some time until the percept emerges. In the example on the right, envisaging a rotating crater may help. The kinetic depth effect (KDE) is a related phenomenon. Sources Musatti CL (1924) Sui fenomeni stereocineti [On the stereokinetic phenomenon].
