The following is a collection of optical illusions collected by scientists here at Smith-Kettlewell.
From Christopher Tyler's Lab:
- Spiral
- Five-tined tuning fork?
- Figure or ground?
From Matteo Carandini's Lab:
- Spinning Spiral: Directions according to Matteo, "One of my longstanding interests is pattern adaptation, which is always a good excuse to show a funny demo. Look at the rotating spiral for 30 s or more, and then look at something you know well, like the back of your hand."
From Suzanne McKee's Lab:
- Apparent Motion Illusions
