below in figure 1 Figure 1 Scission White Illusion (http://web.mit.edu/persci/demos/Whites/) The red in the illusion appears to be several shades of red,
but in reality this is an illusions as the red strips are all exactly the same colour. This examples uses read, but the same is true where the small strips
are another colour or grey. The original illusion was created with grey stripes, there are also many other vein of this, in all cases there is the background of black
and white and then the use of strops or squares that are perceived to be different or even graduated tones of the same colour (Anderson, 2003).
The illusion is created by the way in which the brain interprets the input for the eye, which in turn is impacted by the light reaching the
eye from the surface of the viewed object, known as the "contextual effects on colour appearance" in this case the illusion. The spatial context and the modulation of colour
are the key to understanding part of the illusion, however when using this alone there is not a full explanation of why there is the perceptions of different colours (Anderson,
2003). The amount of light that reaches the eye from a viewed object is referred to as the luminance, this is made up
of two factors, the quality of the light incident o the objects surface and the refection of the light from the surface, this is the proportion of the light that
hits the surface which is reflected (Anderson, 2003).The reflectance is the factor that is most informative, which is extracted from the illuminations of the luminance for the environment (Anderson, 2003).
