Binocular cues- visual information taken in by two eyes that enable us a sense of depth perception, or stereopsis. Includes stereopsis, eye convergence, disparity, and yielding depth from binocular vision through exploitation of parallax.
Retinal disparity- the space between the eyes that allows binocular vision to create depth perception.
Convergence- refers to the fact that the closer an object, the more inward our eyes need to turn in order to focus
For example, this may be obvious but this can be seen with binoculars. Which is probably where it got the name.
Monocular cues- any depth cue that can be processed by using one eye alone. Includes size: distant objects subtend smaller visual angles than near objects, grain, size, and motion parallax.
Relative size- is a perceptual clue which allows you to determine how close objects are to an object of known size.
Relative motion- is the calculation of the motion of an object with regard to some other moving object.
Relative height- is a concept used in visual and artistic perspective where distant objects are seen or portrayed as being smaller and higher in relation to items that are closer. 
Relative clarity- light from distant objects passes through more atmosphere therefore they are perceived as hazy and farther away than sharp, clear objects.
Interposition- occurs in instances where one object overlaps the other, which causes us to perceive depth.
Texture gradient- is the distortion in size which closer objects have compared to objects farther away.
Linear perspective- is a depth cue that is related to both relative size and the next depth cue, texture gradient.
For example, like a telescope you only look through with one eye and perceive the depth or distance it is away from you.
