Perceived distance of objects that are far away from the observer is often assumed to be subject to some global limitation in the sense that the moon, the stars, and the sun are all perceived at the "sky": that is, at about the same distance. This observation is related to the idea that visual space is not open but ends at visible surfaces or, indeed, the sky. Uexküll and Kriszat (1934) suggested that this is realized as a hard limit, which they call the "farthest plane." If an observed person or object would walk beyond this farthest plane, it would no longer be perceived as moving further away, but rather as shrinking in size. This observation is actually quite common; if looking down from a high tower, for example, cars or even houses on the ground below may appear as if they were toys: that is, shrunk, presumably because they are perceived at the distance of the farthest plane while subtending a visual angle that corresponds to a larger distance. The farthest plane would thus _________________________________________.

* subtend: ~에 대(對)하다

1. prove the boundless reach of visual space

2. mark the limit of the perception of size constancy

3. cause objects to look more vivid as they approach it 

4. allow objects to appear larger as they move beyond it 

5. provide a reference point for calculating the exact distance

Perceived distance of objects that are far away from the observer is often assumed to be subject to some global limitation in the sense that the moon, the stars, and the sun are all perceived at the "sky": that is, at about the same distance.

관찰자로부터 멀리 떨어진 물체의 인지 거리는 달, 별, 태양이 모두 "하늘"에서, 즉 거의 같은 거리에서 인지된다는 점에서 어떤 전역적 한계에 따라 결정되는 경우가 많습니다.

This observation is related to the idea that visual space is not open but ends at visible surfaces or, indeed, the sky.

이러한 관찰은 시공간이 열려 있지 않고 가시적인 표면, 즉 하늘에서 끝난다는 생각과 관련이 있습니다.

Uexküll and Kriszat (1934) suggested that this is realized as a hard limit, which they call the "farthest plane."

Uexküll과 Kriszat(1934)은 이것이 "가장 먼 평면"이라고 부르는 명확한 한계로 실현된다고 주장했습니다.

If an observed person or object would walk beyond this farthest plane, it would no longer be perceived as moving further away, but rather as shrinking in size.

관찰 대상인 사람이나 물체가 이 가장 먼 평면을 넘어 걸어가면 더 이상 멀어지는 것으로 인지되지 않고 오히려 크기가 줄어드는 것으로 인지됩니다.

This observation is actually quite common; if looking down from a high tower, for example, cars or even houses on the ground below may appear as if they were toys: that is, shrunk, presumably because they are perceived at the distance of the farthest plane while subtending a visual angle that corresponds to a larger distance.

이러한 관찰은 실제로 매우 흔합니다. 예를 들어 높은 탑에서 내려다볼 때, 아래 땅에 있는 자동차나 집은 마치 장난감처럼 보일 수 있습니다. 즉, 작아진 것처럼 보이는데, 아마도 가장 먼 평면의 거리에서 더 큰 거리에 해당하는 시각 각도를 대입하여 인지되기 때문일 것입니다.

The farthest plane would thus mark the limit of the perception of size constancy

따라서 가장 먼 평면은 크기 불변성 지각의 한계를 표시합니다.

1. prove the boundless reach of visual space

1. 시각 공간의 무한한 확장성을 증명합니다.

2. mark the limit of the perception of size constancy 2. 크기 불변성 지각의 한계를 표시합니다.

3. cause objects to look more vivid as they approach it 

3. 물체가 그 지점에 접근할 때 더 생생하게 보이게 합니다.

4. allow objects to appear larger as they move beyond it 

4. 물체가 그 지점을 넘어갈 때 더 크게 보이게 합니다.

5. provide a reference point for calculating the exact distance

5. 정확한 거리를 계산하기 위한 기준점을 제공합니다.
