Looking at this picture, do you see the diamond standing still or 'running' around?

You know, what you see around every day is probably not reflecting on the fact that is happening.

The reason is because the images you see are actually made by the brain, after synthesizing the information transmitted by the cornea. But the brain is dominated by many factors and it is easy to be fooled, making us see things that are not true - collectively referred to as "visual illusions".

As the picture below is an example. If you see a pink "diamond" in the picture running wildly, look back carefully. Because you have been cheated!

The diamond department runs wildly in the day is actually a visual illusion.

This photo is a new visual illusion created by researcher Oliver Flynn and Arthur Shapiro from American University in Washington DC (USA), with a very beautiful name: "Immortal diamond".

Inside is a pink vertical diamond (the symbol of a diamond) flashing, making it feel like it is moving. But actually, the diamond is just standing still.

"Diamond" was announced by two scientists in a new study. The origin of this illusion comes from the flashes between the background and the edge of the diamond . As explained by two scientists, the background of the square behind and the edges of the diamond flashes continuously, creating an illusion that makes the eye feel that it is moving, even if it is standing still.

"The direction of eye movement is dependent on the direction of the phases that flash." - quoted in research report.

For example, the flashes on both sides of the bottom will make the eye feel the diamond stick running in the corresponding direction.

The study was published in the i-Perception scientific journal.
