Abstract
The ability to see objects in three dimensions is the result of binocular depth cues. The fact that the images that strike the retina in each eye are slightly different allows our brain to merge these different inputs into a single three-dimensional image. If the disparity is too great, if the two eyes see entirely different images as it would if a beam splitter is used, the result is a competition between the images. In this binocular rivalry each image in turn becomes visible a few seconds at a time, then reverts back.
