The spatial separation of the eyes causes a difference in the images in the two eyes formed by a solid object. These differences, or binocular disparities, form the basis for stereoscopic vision. This chapter discusses the extent to which each of these differences is used as a basis for stereopsis. Topics covered include feature tokens for stereopsis, monocular occlusion, occlusion as a depth token, stereopsis from illusions, chromostereopsis, and irradiation stereopsis.Less
