Anisotropy in an ambiguous kinetic depth effectA set of animated stimuli (Lissajous figures), each element of which is physically consistent with two different 3D shapes undergoing rigid rotations about orthogonal axes is presented. Predictions of which shape will be seen are made by utilizing an adaptation of Hildreth's smoothest-velocity-field computation. Results indicate that the ambiquity in 2D visual motion, i.e., the aperture problem, is not resolved before the interpretation of the 3D structure.
