Abstract

We examined the perception of depth and stability when viewing a video movie made with a camera that moved laterally back and forth 65mm. The two viewing conditions were: (a) head movement synchronized to the stimulus movement and (b) head stationary. In Experiment 1 (N=16), both conditions showed approximately the same magnitude of apparent depth. We argue that (a) in the head movement condition, observers used the cue produced by observer-produced motion parallactic depth, whereas (b) in the no head movement condition, they used the kinetic depth cue or cue(s) from "structure from motion". In Experiment 2 (N=15), the head movement condition showed a greater stability (less perceived motion) compared to the head stationary condition. The results indicate that simulating observer-produced motion parallax (head movement condition) on a video movie of an actual object has no advantages in terms of depth perception. The advantage lies in producing greater stability.
