merge Cyclopean image discuss Talk Cyclopean stimuli Merger proposal date August 2009 Cyclopean stimuli is a form of visual stimuli that is defined by binocular disparity alone. It was named after the one eyed Cyclops of Homer s Odyssey by Bela Julesz . Julesz was a Hungarian radar engineer. He thought that stereopsis might help to discover hidden objects, this might be useful to find camouflaged objects. The important aspect of this research was that Julesz showed using random dot stereograms RDSs that disparity is sufficient for stereopsis, where Charles Wheatstone had only shown that binocular disparity was necessary for stereopsis. Ironically, the Cyclops would not have been able to see a cyclopean stimulus, because having only one eye, he would not have been able to perceive binocular depth cues such as binocular disparity.

Orphan date September 2008 Cyclopean stairs form as a result of glacial erosion. The term refers to the longitudinal profile of a glaciated valley that has several consecutive hanging valley s. Formation There are a few different ways cyclopean stairs can form. One way they form is through plucking glaciation plucking . Different bedrock types may be more susceptible to plucking. If a highly Joint geology jointed layer of bedrock is on the surface, large portions of it will be picked up by the glacier and deposited later as a glacial erratic . The valley formed in this fashion may have a steep wall at its head caused by a change in the bedrock type. The stronger bedrock will remain in the form of a riser at the end of a hanging valley. Cyclopean stairs can also form at points where tributary glaciers feed into larger central glaciers. The tributary glacier causes the central glacier to thicken and downcut more rapidly. This may cause a very sudden drop in the valley floor at the points where the glaciers converged. They may also form at the head of a glacier. In an area where the snowline is rising, the cirque landform cirque in which the glacier forms my recede. A new cirque may form above the previous cirque and carve out a new step. As the snowline continues to rise, new cirques would continue to form the steps of the cyclopean stairs. References Surface Processes and Landforms , Don J. Easterbrook.

Geology The Cyclopean Isles are of volcanic origin, and may at one time have been attached to Sicily. The lava forming the basaltic columns was consolidated under great pressure, probably at the bottom of the sea. The Cyclopean Isles strongly resemble the Giant s Causeway on the northern coast of Ireland , and the Isle of Staffa off the western coast of Scotland . The latter, closest in appearance to the Cyclopean pair, differ mainly in having the columns piled in terraces, one above another. Homer s legend There is an ancient tradition that the islands at one time formed part of the mainland of Sicily. Homer has a curious story about the manner in which they became detached, towards the end of the ninth book of the Odyssey. When Odysseus visited Sicily it was inhabited by the Cyclops Cyclopes , said to have had only one eye, on the forehead. Their king, Polyphemus , was a huge giant mythology giant who cornered Odysseus and some of his crew into a cave, where some were killed and eaten for supper. Fearing he may be next, Odysseus got Polyphemus drunk on wine until he fell asleep, taking advantage of the opportunity to burn out his one eye with a red hot iron. The giant awoke in agony, but Odysseus escaped, and, from the apparent safety of his ship, began taunting and jeering. Homer Alexander Pope Pope s translation says These words the Cyclops burning rage provoke From the tall hill he rends a pointed rock High o er the billows flew the massy load, And near the ship came thund ring on the flood.
