The Ponzo illusion illustrates how the brain frequently makes assumptions about an object's characteristics that it cannot directly detect by using depth perception.
<h3>What is Ponzo illusion?</h3>
The task you just finished is an illustration of the Ponzo illusion, a type of optical trick. The Ponzo illusion illustrates how the brain frequently makes assumptions about an object's characteristics that it cannot directly detect by using depth perception.
Most people overcorrect when asked to make the bottom line the same length as the top line; as a result, the bottom line is longer than the top.
<h3> Why is that so?</h3>
In the Ponzo illusion, the oblique (slanted) vertical lines give the appearance of depth by giving the brain distance information. The two oblique lines appear to us how train tracks may appear to someone else (parallel, converging into the distance).
