Three-dimensional structure from long-range apparent motion.
Experiments are reported which show that three-dimensional structure can be perceived from two-dimensional image motions carried by objects defined solely by the differences in binocular and/or temporal correlation (ie disparity or motion discontinuities). This demonstrates that the kinetic depth effect is independent of motion detection in the luminance domain and that its relevant input comes from detectors based on some form of identity preservation of objects or features over time, ie the long-range processes of apparent motion.
