Phi Phenomenon
It is where it is an illusion of movement where there is rapid succession.

This is an example of phi-phenomenon because it shows how it is moving when really there is an illusion where the lights are turned on and off in order to make the person think that it is moving.
Reversible Figures
It is a two-dimensional drawing that shows a three-dimensional drawing to the point where it is seen from two different perspectives.

For example, in this picture, someone would think that it is a man playing the saxophone and making music. However, another person can look at the picture and see a woman's face with hair and it shows some of her neck.
Depth Perception (Monocular Cues)
Relative Size
It's a monocular cue when two objects are roughly the same size, the object that looks the largest will be judged as being the closest to the observer.

It's the same case with the two diet cokes. Though they are the same size, the one that is closer to the person seems to be larger than the one that is farther away from the person.
Relative Motion
It's a monocular cue that shows that as we move, objects at different distances appear to move at different rates.

This relates to relative motion because as the man is moving, it seems as if the people are moving along with him but at a different rate even when they are just standing there watching the race.
Relative Clarity
It is a monocular cue when light from distant objects passes through more atmosphere which is why it is perceived as hazy and farther away than sharp, clear objects.

This relates to relative clarity because the ocean looks distant and hazy compared to the rocks which look clearer and closer to the observer.
Interposition
This is another monocular cue where one object partially blocks the view of another which makes us  perceive it as closer.

For instance, the hot air balloon covers the other hot air balloon. This makes the red, blue, and white hot air balloon look closer when in fact they really are the same size. Just because it blocks the other hot air balloon, it looks closer.
Texture Gradient
It is another monocular cue where there is a gradual change from course, distinct and clear texture to indistinct texture which shows how there is an increased distance.

This is shown when the texture looks clear when it is close to the observer; however, as the distance continues to grow, the observer notices how the texture of the sidewalk gets blurry and distorted.
Retinal Disparity 
It is a binocular cue where the left eye and the right eye see different images. The more different the image is to each eye, the closer the object is the the observer.

When you look with a pencil, you see in your left eye, there is a history book; however, when you look through your right eye, you see a chair. The pencil is a way to separate your left eye and right eye which makes it easier to see the difference. However, if you look far away, both of your eyes see the same image when they see the other side of the classroom.
Convergence
This is another binocular cue where in order to perceive an object more clearly, the eyes would converge. This is used to determine whether an object is closer or farther away.

The cat is an example of convergence when the cat looks at the bug on its nose, its eyes move closer together in order to perceive the bug more closely.
