Occluded Spaces

Occluded spaces refer to areas that are hidden from view because objects block the line of sight. In visual perception, when something obstructs part of a scene, the obscured area is called an occluded space. These spaces are essential in understanding how we perceive depth and structure in our environment, as our brains infer what's behind objects based on context. Recognizing occluded spaces helps in fields like computer vision, robotics, and architectural design by improving how systems interpret complex visual scenes where parts of the environment are temporarily or permanently hidden.
