Abstract
The basic problems of retinal binocular stereopsis are centered around the conceptions of correspondence and disparity. Hering 1 unquestionably laid the foundations for a comprehensive understanding of these conceptions. The weakness of his theories lies in their static, geometric character: According to Hering, whether two points are corresponding or disparate depends on whether the distances from the foveas are the same or different; furthermore, a strict relationship exists between the amount of depth and disparity. This article attempts to demonstrate that a dynamic rather than a static, geometric conception of stereopsis is correct. It seems appropriate to start the analysis with a simple dynamic phenomenon, well known but rarely if ever utilized for the interpretation of stereoscopic processes.
