Perceptual Constancies- Law of Shape Constancy

The law of shape constancy occurs when our brain looks at the same object from different angles and still knows that it is the same object.

This picture is an example of shape constancy because we can understand that the quarter is still the same object when the side is shown.

This is another example of an object that is shown from different perspectives.  We are still able to tell that it is the same object every time.
