👉 Phototactism is a phenomenon that occurs when an object appears to be larger or more luminous than it actually is due to a change in light intensity. This effect is particularly noticeable in low-light conditions, where the color of the object may appear brighter due to the increased intensity of the light source. For example, if you are standing in front of a bright streetlight and try to walk away from it, you will notice that your body appears to be moving faster than it actually is.
