Perception of Distance in Animal Echo-Location

Nature, 1960
THE frequency sweep used by some bats is unlikely to be essential for distance perception by these animals, and is possibly no more than an accidental consequence of their method of sound production. When the cricothyroid muscles of the larynx of Eptesicus bats are denervated the modulation is altogether absent and the frequency becomes constant at ...

Distance perception: A comparison of in-class and distance-learning psychology of perception classes.

2000
Fifty students were randomly assigned to take a perception class either in a traditional lecture or in a distance-learning format in which the students attended class only to take tests. The results failed to suggest that the students in the distance-learning condition performed differently in the course than the lecture students.

Mathematical Logic Quarterly, 1994
AbstractWe consider the target‐reaching problem in plane scenes for a point robot which has a tactile sensor and can locate the target ray. It might have a compass, too, but it is not able to perceive the coordinates of its position nor to measure distances.

The absence of eye movements implies that the range of an object cannot be inferred from the extent to which the directions of gaze of the two eyes must converge to view the object. The inability of an insect eye to change focus means that the dis tance to

In order to observe and to determine something about the character of the visual perception of distance, I shall offer an illustrative experience of visual remoteness and closeness freed, so far as possible, from ordinary sophistications. This illustration will lead to two descriptive definitions of distance and nearness which are intended to be ...
