What we*ll sense and perceive* in this chapter:
... When light reaches the back of the retina, it triggers chemical changes in two types of receptor cells: Rods help us see the black and white actions in our peripheral view and in the dark. Cones help us see sharp colorful details in bright light. ...

... Top-down processing is involved in much visual perception. Gestalt theorists have identified several principles by which we recognize stimuli even when visual inputs are limited. We use binocular and monocular cues for depth perception. Perceptual constancies, based on learning from previous experie ...
