Example: Because there is a distance between our eyes, each eye has a slightly different angle. So if we were to hold an object a foot away, the image will be the same, but if we were to hold the object right in front of our face, there would be more of a difference between the images coming from our eyes.
7) Monocular Cues: are cues that deals with perceiving the distance of an object, many of these cues can be processed with just one eye which is why it is called monocular cues.
An example of a monocular cue is relative size cue, which basically states if two objects are the same size, the one that appears the largest one to the viewer will be the one closest to the observer.
i.e An artist drawing a box closer to the where the viewer will see it and then drawing a same size box farther away on the paper.
8) Another monocular cue is texture gradient, which basically states we can see the details in texture when it is close to us but not farther away.
Example: Seeing the details of a golf ball when it is close to us but now when it is down a football field. Link to picture

9) Motion perception: An aspect of our perception to gauge motion, we can detect how fast images move across our retinas and at the same time take into account our own motion.
An example of motion perception is the stroboscopic effect, which is when one have a series of still pictures, but it is presented at a fast enough speed so it appears like it is moving.
i.e: A flip-book depicting a skater where each page is individually drawn but when flipped fast enough it looks like the person is skating.
