Perceptual illusion of rotation of three-dimensional objects

RN Shepard and SA Judd

Perspective views of the same three-dimensional object in two orientations, when presented in alternation, produced an illusion of rigid rotation. The minimum cycle duration required for the illusion increased linearly with the angular difference between the orientations and at the same slope for rotations in depth and in the picture plane.
