    • What is direct perception also known as?
      Ecological perception
    • One of the key principles of direct perception is that no interpretation is needed.
    • What do affordances refer to in direct perception theory?
      Interaction opportunities
    • Optic flow is created as we move through the environment and aids spatial awareness.
    • Give an example of the principle "no interpretation needed" in direct perception.
      Seeing a red light means stop
    • Stairs afford the action of climbing.
    • How does optic flow help in perceiving the environment according to direct perception?
      Aids spatial awareness
    • Affordances are based on the environment's qualities.
    • What action does a flat surface afford, according to Gibson's theory?
      Sitting
    • Match the quality of an object with its affordance:
      Flat surface ↔️ Sitting
      Doorway ↔️ Passage
      Stairs ↔️ Climbing
    • Sensory data in direct perception requires no interpretation
    • What is the term for the opportunities the environment provides for interaction based on its qualities?
      Affordances
    • Optic flow refers to visual patterns created as we move, aiding spatial awareness.
    • Seeing a red light means stop
    • Who developed the direct perception theory?
      James J. Gibson
    • Direct perception emphasizes the role of complex cognitive interpretations in visual perception.
      False
    • Affordances are the opportunities for interaction based on environmental qualities
    • What is an example of an affordance provided by a flat surface?
      Sitting
    • Optic flow creates visual patterns that aid in spatial awareness and depth perception
    • What happens to the apparent movement of near objects in optic flow as we move forward?
      Move faster and diverge
    • Order the apparent movement of objects in optic flow from near to far.
      1️⃣ Near objects move faster
      2️⃣ Distant objects move slower
    • How do texture gradients contribute to depth perception?
      Provide a distance cue
    • Texture density increases as the surface recedes into the distance.
    • Match the aspect of texture gradients with its description:
      Texture density ↔️ Increases with distance
      Detail visibility ↔️ Decreases with distance
    • Texture gradients align with Gibson's Direct Perception Theory
    • What is another name for direct perception?
      Ecological perception
    • One key principle of direct perception is that sensory data requires no interpretation
    • What is an example of an affordance provided by stairs?
      Climbing
    • Optic flow helps in spatial awareness through visual patterns created by movement.
    • Match the principle of direct perception with its example:
      No interpretation needed ↔️ Seeing a red light means stop
      Affordances ↔️ Stairs afford climbing
      Optic flow ↔️ Speed of approaching cars indicates danger
    • Optic flow refers to the visual pattern created as we move through the environment
    • What happens to the apparent movement of near objects in optic flow as we move forward?
      Move faster and diverge
    • Texture gradients help with depth perception by showing how texture changes with distance.
    • What is optic flow and its role in perception?
      Visual pattern for spatial awareness
    • Optic flow is a key feature of direct perception in spatial awareness.
    • Texture gradients help with depth perception by changing the texture of a surface as it recedes into the distance
    • Match the aspect of texture gradients with its description:
      Texture density ↔️ Increases with distance
      Detail visibility ↔️ Decreases with distance
    • Invariant features are essential for identifying objects and navigating the world.
    • What are optical invariants in perception?
      Stable properties of light
    • Structural invariants refer to the fixed physical properties of objects
