IllusionWorks  - A multimedia museum of optical and sensory illusions, with on-line demonstrations and explanations. |
| Affective Epistemology - Affective epistemology is based on the idea that there is a way of knowing which transcends, specific perceptual frames.

| Auditory Perception Cognition and Action Meeting: APCAM - The goal of APCAM is to bring together researchers from various theoretical perspectives to present focused research on auditory cognition, perception, and action. |
| Chronological History of Vision Research - Useful chronology by Jack Yellott. |
| The Logarithmic Time Perception Hypothesis - Logtime is the psychochronometric hypothesis that our age is our basis for estimating long time intervals, resulting in a perceived logarithmic shrinkage of our years as we grow older. |
| The Manifold of Sense - A survey of the discourse regarding emotions, sensations, and an attempt at producing an integrative approach to sensation and perception. |

| Optical Flow Estimation Bibliography - Mainly algorithms (up-to-date; compiled by Laurenz Wiskott at The Salk Institute). |
| Optical Illusions by Psych ARTS - We think we perceive objective reality, but perception is always altered by invisible biases. We are never free of the state-dependent bias, and so we are continually taken in by an illusion. |

| Some Visual Illusions - This site shows a range of common visual illusions along with a brief explanation of why they occur. It was originally prepared to show at a children's primary school as part of their study of sensory processing. |
| Vision Laboratory Macquarie University - Contains information about current research into human visual perception. Features material from some of the courses run by the psychology department and information about staff and students.s |
