Question
How are mismatches in correspondences treated in stereopsis?
Step 1
Each eye views a scene from a slightly different angle, creating two images that the brain combines to perceive depth. Show more…

How does differential position, relative to each fovea in the 2 eyes, provide information about the relative depth of objects? What is the correspondence problem of binocular disparity? Explain how results that demonstrate strong binocular depth perception in random dot displays give us an important clue about how the visual system solves the correspondence problem.
Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/I/I_3-D1) to learn more about how the brain perceives 3 -D motion. Similar to how retinal disparity offers 3 -D moviegoers a way to extract 3-D information from the two-dimensional visual field projected onto the retina, the brain can extract information about movement in space by comparing what the two eyes see. If movement of a visual stimulus is leftward in one eye and rightward in the opposite eye, the brain interprets this as movement toward (or away) from the face along the midline. If both eyes see an object moving in the same direction, but at different rates, what would that mean for spatial movement?
