Ames Room

For my final project, I wanted to create an optical illusion model that could be used by Dr. Przybyla, and other psychology professors, to demonstrate the effects of misperception. I chose to design an ames room, a distorted room that appears cubic when monocularly (with one eye), from a specific viewpoint, even though the room is actually trapezoidal. Additionally, objects in the room tend to appear as if shrinking or growing when moving from one corner to the other.

Here is an example of this effect demonstrated by infamous Dr. Philip Zimbardo:
