Optical illusions?are among the internet's favourite things to indulge in. Nothing feels more satisfying than being able to figure out how an optical illusion works.?
So, we bring you one more illusion to scratch your head over. A picture of intersecting grey lines on a white background has 12 dots in it - but can you see all the dots at the same time?
Intriguingly, the 12 dots blink in and out of existence where the grey lines meet.?
The illusion first went viral in 2016, after being shared?by game developer?Will Kerslake. It is known as the Scintillating Grid Illusion because the dots appear to twinkle in and out of view like stars in the night sky.
To be clear, there really are 12 black dots in the image. But most people can¡¯t see all 12 dots at the same time, which?is driving them nuts.??
You won¡¯t be able to see them all together. Why? Because the illusion doesn¡¯t allow the brain to process the image as quickly as you see it.? ??
"Haha, nice. ?I think I managed to see two at the same time though," one Reddit user commented.?
¡°OK, now I¡¯m just p***ed off," another user said.?
¡°I don¡¯t get it. I see all of them at the same time," a third user claimed.
If you fancy another challenge, here is an?optical illusion?of a tricky picture showing a "curved line".
However, when you start looking at the photo, you'll find that everything might start to appear curved to you.??
The Reddit user shared the image with the caption: "Thanks, I hate optical illusions. Go ahead, find the curved line."
In the picture, it shows green lines to form a grid on a grey background and every line appears to be curved if you look carefully. There are many lines in the picture, but only one of them is curved. It will just knock the stuffing out of you.?
