Visual motion perception.

Perception of Visual Motion

Visual motion perception.

The primate visual motion system performs numerous functions essential for survival in a dynamic visual world. Prominent among these functions is the ability to recover and represent the trajectories of objects in a form that facilitates behavioral responses to those movements. The first step toward this goal, which consists of detecting the displacement of retinal image features, has been stud...

Auditory Motion Information Drives Visual Motion Perception

BACKGROUND Vision provides the most salient information with regard to the stimulus motion. However, it has recently been demonstrated that static visual stimuli are perceived as moving laterally by alternating left-right sound sources. The underlying mechanism of this phenomenon remains unclear; it has not yet been determined whether auditory motion signals, rather than auditory positional sig...

The visual perception of motion

Sensing the movements of the world and the objects within it appears to be a fundamental job for our visual system. In rare cases of brain damage, we find that individuals lacking motion perception live in a very different world of frozen images, where simple tasks like filling a kettle or crossing the road take on alarming difficulties. That tasks such as driving a fast car down the freeway re...

Fonn perception Motion perception Neural networks Visual cortex Visual persistence Apparent motion Korte's laws

How does the visual system generate percepts of moving forms? How does this happen when the forms are emergent percepts, such as illusory' contours or segregated textures, and the motion percept is apparent motion between the emergent forms? We develop a neural model of form-motion interactions to explain and simulate parametric properties of psychophysical motion data and to make predictions a...
