Visual Acceleration Perception for Simple and Complex Motion Patterns
نویسندگان
چکیده
Humans are able to judge whether a target is accelerating in many viewing contexts, but it is an open question how the motion pattern per se affects visual acceleration perception. We measured acceleration and deceleration detection using patterns of random dots with horizontal (simpler) or radial motion (more visually complex). The results suggest that we detect acceleration better when viewing radial optic flow than horizontal translation. However, the direction within each type of pattern has no effect on performance and observers detect acceleration and deceleration similarly within each condition. We conclude that sensitivity to the presence of acceleration is generally higher for more complex patterns, regardless of the direction within each type of pattern or the sign of acceleration.

The shape of self-motion perception--II. framework and principles for simple and complex motion.
There have been numerous experimental studies on human perception and misperception of self-motion and orientation relative to the earth, each focusing on one or a few types of motion. We present a formal framework encompassing many types of motion and including all angular and linear components of velocity and acceleration. Using a mathematically rigorous presentation, the framework defines th...

Background and Objective: The measure of motion playing a role in the growth of visual perception components and particularly visual perception depending on the motion components has not been known. The aim of this present study was to investigate the effect of visual and visual-motor training programs related to the motion of the components of visual perception in children with lazy eye. M...

We investigated the influence of vestibular stimulation with different angular accelerations and velocities on the perception of visual motion direction. Constant accelerations resulting in different angular velocities and constant angular velocities obtained at different accelerations were combined in twenty healthy subjects. Random-dot kinematograms with coherently moving pixels and randomly ...

Mounting neurophysiological evidence indicates that the visual analysis of human movement differs from the visual analysis of other categories of complex movement. If different patterns of neural activity underlie visual percepts of human and nonhuman movement, then psychophysical measures should elucidate different patterns of visual sensitivity to human movement and similarly complex, but non...

Objectives: Auditory perception or hearing ability is critical for children in acquisition of language and speech hence hearing loss has different effects on individuals’ linguistic perception, and also on their functions. It seems that deaf people suffer from language and speech impairments such as in perception of complex linguistic constructions. This research was aimed to study the pe...
