Abstract
Monocular cues allow us to judge distance and depth whether we are viewing with one eye or two. For example, the image size of an object appears larger when it is close and smaller when it is far away. Parallel lines seem to come together as they move into the distance. Your brain computes motion based partly on its assumption that objects whose image on the retina is diminishing are moving away. But even that assumption is subject to error when an object is unfamiliar or when few distance cues are available.
