  • Title: How is motion disparity integrated with binocular disparity in depth perception?
    Author: Ichikawa M, Saida S.
    Journal: Percept Psychophys; 1996 Feb; 58(2):271-82. PubMed ID: 8838169.
    Abstract:
    Two experiments presented motion disparity conflicting with binocular disparity to examine how these cues determined apparent depth order (convex, concave) and depth magnitude. In each experiment, 8 subjects estimated the depth order and depth magnitude. The first experiment showed the following. (1) The visual system used one of these cues exclusively in selecting a depth order for each display. (2) The visual system integrated the depth magnitude information from these cues by a weighted additive fashion if it selected the binocular disparity in depth order perception and if the depth magnitude specified by motion disparity was small relative to that specified by binocular disparity. (3) The visual system ignored the depth magnitude information of binocular disparity if it selected the motion disparity in depth order perception. The second experiment showed that these three points were consistent whether the subject's head movement or object movement generated motion disparity.
