Can you spot the hidden number in this 3D optical illusion?

Illusion is derived from the Latin verb illudere, which means to mock or trick. Optical illusion pictures are designed to trick the human mind and are regarded as one of the simplest tests to determine attentiveness.

Neuroscientists used optical illusion pictures to study how the brain creates the perception of reality. We tend to form a perception of reality in our brains, thanks to the brain's ability to fill in gaps in visual information. 

Individuals who practice optical illusion puzzles regularly tend to have better problem-solving abilities and observation skills than those who don’t.
