Meaning
Swedish
has glossswe: Spiral-illusionen (eng: barberpole illusion) är en välkänd optisk illusion som påvisar den mänskliga hjärnans benägenhet att uppfatta rörliga bilder. När en så kallad barberarstolpe med ett diagonalt spiralmönster roterar runt sin vertikala axel ser objektet ut att flytta sig vertikalt, trots att den egentliga rörelsen sker i vågrät riktning.
