A viral painting appears ordinary at first, but many viewers claim a face emerges after prolonged viewing. Neuroscience explains this as pareidolia, the brain’s tendency to find patterns, intensified ...

In this animal-based optical illusion, viewers are challenged to spot the camel within the spectrum of colors. On its face, this brain teaser appears to depict a kaleidoscope of random pigments, like ...

Abstract: In this paper, we present a fully soft miniaturized continuum robot that integrates 3D optical shape sensing through functionalized tubing used as soft optical waveguides. The sensor is ...

A Cognitive Skill is the ability that enables us to think logically, and to learn, remember, and solve problems. In today’s puzzle series, there is 3D Stereogram Illusion is given with many random ...

Abstract: 3D silicon photonic integration is a key packaging method for optical I/O. In 3D silicon photonic integration, TSVs are integrated into silicon chips. The TSV annealing process can cause ...

Optical Illusion: We have a picture given below, which is of a board full of ‘flowers’! However, what you have to spot is a mistake– a spelling mistake. You only have 10 seconds! Spot the mistake in ...

All in all, time is of the essence here! After all, what puzzle is interesting without a time limit? Take another good look at the image and try to spot the culprit in under 10 seconds! Only people ...

Optical illusions have long fascinated internet users, often blurring the line between what the eyes see and what the brain interprets. These visual puzzles challenge perception, test focus, and spark ...

We built them to be cold, calculating, and immune to the subjective flaws of the biological mind. Yet, when shown a specific arrangement of static, colored circles known as the “Rotating Snakes,” ...

Researchers have shown that consumer-grade 3D printers and low-cost materials can be used to produce multi-element optical components that enable super-resolution imaging, with each lens costing less ...

Some artificial intelligence systems are falling for the same optical illusions that trick human vision, a finding that researchers are using to test theories about how the brain processes information ...
