Paper 1
Revise: Visual Cues and ConstanciesOcclusion occurs when one object partly hides another. The blocking object is perceived as nearer because it lies in front of the hidden object. For example, if a tree hides part of a parked car, the tree is nearer than the car.
For occlusion, the object doing the blocking is nearer; the partly hidden object is further away.
