I think this entry should be disambiguated - a link to Illusion in the Psychiatric sense. --harry 15:55, 17 Sep 2004 (UTC)


I think the Doppler Effect is a physical effect, not an illusion. There is a real change in pitch. -- Emperorbma 10:26, 27 Dec 2003 (UTC)

All perceptions, including illusions, are physical and perceptual. Arguably, there is no real change in pitch, as long as you are moving at the same speed as the object producing sound. However, I agree that the Doppler Effect is questionable as an illusion, but it is not a fine line.Hyacinth 16:55, 27 Dec 2003 (UTC)

From Doppler effect, emphasis mine: "The Doppler effect is the apparent change in frequency or wavelength of a wave that is perceived by an observer moving relative to the source of the waves."Hyacinth

Yes, but the wavelength relative to the observer actually does change. We can actually measure this. [[User:Aranel|Aranel ("Sarah")]] 01:46, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
The Doppler effect is not an illusion. If you experience a sound wave, it's real, not psychiatric, and you have no way of telling whether it came from a stationary object or a moving object by performing measurements on the sound wave only. With the extra information that it came from a moving object, then by the laws of physics, you can now say that the frequency of the moving emitter is not the same as the frequency of the sound you hear. There is no "illusion" involved. The doppler effect is NOT an auditory illusion.PAR (talk) 18:27, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article has mostly good sources, but I think that it could use less of the .com sources to make it more reliable. It could also use some more sources in general. MikaylaS2000 (talk) 17:13, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Audio Paradox

[edit]

An alternate name for this type of effect is audio paradox. Just Google it and you'll find a bunch of hits to this same material. We should include this as an alternate name and direct searches on Audio Paradox to this page.
