CONT

Binocular vision gives rise to a perceptual space that is endowed with a rich geometrical structure, which according to Luneburg [...] is a non-Euclidean Riemannian geometry of constant curvature. .... The Luneburg theory has been less successful in quantitatively predicting individual data, a fact that has sometimes been taken as evidence against the presumed geometrical structure.
