Amazing optical illusion looks like it’s moving – even though it’s completely still

An AMAZING optical illusion has surfaced on Twitter and it’s almost impossible to see what it really is.

The illusion features a simple 2D orange silhouette that doesn’t actually move, but rapidly changing background shadows appear to wander in the direction of the overlapping arrows.

Covering the arrows with your hand doesn’t affect the movement your brain thinks it’s seeing because the trick relies on the color contrast surrounding the edges of the shape.

Twitter user Jagarikin chirp a video showing the outline of the Japanese mascot apparently in motion.

However, if you look at the tops of a character’s antennae or the bottoms of their feet, you might be able to show their brain that they’re not moving at all.

This is a look at the ‘eternal diamond’ illusion created by Arthur Shapiro and Oliver Flynn in 2018.

                The Eternal Diamond Illusion makes this diamond move up, down, left and right even though it is fixed in one position.

Professor Shapiro recently published an impressive illusion On twitter with a challenge to the public.

He tweeted: “Eternal Diamond – A diamond remains fixed in one place but appears to move up, down, left or right.

“See how far you can be from your screen before the effect wears off.”

This trick is often used in basic computer animation to make stationary objects appear to be moving.

The science behind optical illusions

This brief explanation can help you untangle your brain…

  • Optical illusions make a little more sense when you learn that our eyes have very little to do with what we see and that it is our brain that plays a key role in creating images and trying to protect us from potential threats that come our way. surround.
  • Our brain is constantly trying to understand the world at the fastest rate even though the world is in 3D and the images on our retina are in 2D.
  • It can be very difficult for your brain to interpret everything at once, so it will often take shortcuts and give you a simplified version of what you’re seeing so you can react faster if the object you’re looking at seems dangerous.
  • When you look at an object, what you actually see is light bouncing back into your eye, converted into electrical impulses that your brain then converts into an image.
  • Our brains can distort straight lines if an object in the way seems to be getting closer because it wants to emphasize a potential threat.
  • Different colors, light and dark can make objects of the same size look different, or make patterned images appear to be spinning.

In other strange object news, a genius professor has created a “magical” optical illusion toy that “leaves your brain messy.” Can you figure it out?

The world’s rarest piece of gold is so valuable that experts are “afraid to reveal the real price” due to security concerns.

And treasure hunters are using the ‘Copper Scrolls’ map of the Dead Sea to find ancient Jewish loot worth a billion dollars.
