Integration mechanisms for heading perception.
Previous studies of heading perception suggest that human observers employ spatiotemporal pooling to accommodate noise in optic flow stimuli. Here, we investigated how spatial and temporal integration mechanisms are used for judgments of heading through a psychophysical experiment involving three different types of noise. Furthermore, we developed two ideal observer models to study the componen...
متن کاملPerception of heading without retinal optic flow.
How do we determine where we are heading during visually controlled locomotion? Psychophysical research has shown that humans are quite good at judging their travel direction, or heading, from retinal optic flow. Here we show that retinal optic flow is sufficient, but not necessary, for determining heading. By using a purely cyclopean stimulus (random dot cinematogram), we demonstrate heading p...
متن کاملPerception of translational heading from optical flow.
Radial patterns of optical flow produced by observer translation could be used to perceive the direction of self-movement during locomotion, and a number of formal analyses of such patterns have recently appeared. However, there is comparatively little empirical research on the perception of heading from optical flow, and what data there are indicate surprisingly poor performance, with heading ...
متن کاملPerception of circular heading from optical flow.
Observers viewed random-dot optical flow displays that simulated self-motion on a circular path and judged whether they would pass to the right or left of a target at 16 m. Two dots in two frames are theoretically sufficient to specify circular heading if the orientation of the rotation axis is known. Heading accuracies were better than 1.5 degrees with a ground surface, wall surface, and 3D cl...
متن کاملHeading perception and the allocation of attention
A central theme in previous studies of heading judgements has been whether the retinal flow field can be decomposed to recover the translation component of locomotion when flow also contains the effects of gaze rotation. We explored not just the effect of moving gaze, but also moving attention away from the locomotor path by presenting the case of fixating a road sign and completing different a...
