#PerceptionScavengerHunt

Gestalt principle of perceptual grouping (and our difficulty with it): My two cats' matching fur colours make them appear as one, making it hard to detect the second cat at first glance.

*Hint* Look for the ear of the black cat!

Would you still STOP?

This shows how top-down processing works. Even without the word "STOP," we can recognize the sign by its shape, colour, and context. It’s our brain filling in the gaps based on what we’ve learned and experienced before.
