iNSIGHT Form and Motion 4+

Be sure to check out the entire iNSIGHT collection, available as individual apps or in app bundles.

The visual system is well suited to extracting information about the structure and form of objects on the basis of motion. In this demonstration, randomly-positioned dots, which contain no apparent structure when stationary, are animated to produce vivid perceptions of three-dimensional forms.

iNSIGHT is a curriculum supplement for experimental psychology, sensation and perception, vision science, and optometry lab classes. There are two different types of iNSIGHT apps: experiments and interactive demonstrations. Experiments are real psychophysical procedures (NOT simulations) that generate real data. Demonstrations illustrate a visual phenomenon and allow students to manipulate the effect. Each lab is complete with a quick-start guide, detailed instructions, background information, and one or more guided exercises. To see how iNSIGHT works, try the FREE iNSIGHT Color Mixing app.

A printable PDF Student Guide that contains the exercises and other supporting materials, and a Teacher Guide are available at www.polyhedronlearning.com/see_apps_insight.html
