Project Goals
This project aims to design, implement and promote a set of diverse optical illusions using motion, color, shape, appearance, visual and perceptional cues, etc. The applets mush be lightweight, allow user interaction, convey interesting/unexpected visual illusions, and provide appropriate explanations for all of these visual perceptions. One example is the Pacman's illusion (right). Additional examples of such visuals are included below.

Example
The Adelson-Checker-Shadow illusion is very interesting. The color/shade of square A is exactly the same gray shade of square B. You can see the evidence by clicking on the Show button to the right. Even after seeing the proof, your eyes may still keep deceiving you.
