Motion perception plays a fundamental role in our daily visual experience; it is critical for computing the speed and direction of moving objects and controlling our own body and eye movements. Motion ...

Motion perception, particularly in three dimensions, is a fundamental aspect of human visual processing that enables the interpretation of dynamic environments. The brain combines multiple sensory ...

The fact that we are able to see movement may sound trivial. After all, we perceive motion the very second we open our eyes. However, we are only beginning to grasp the complexity of the nerve cell ...

If a mosquito approaches a human ear or a bee heads for the next flower, two things are important: the insects must be able to locate their destination and correct course deviations, caused by a gust ...

Humans can visually perceive the motion of a small object better than that of a large one. By contrast, according to a study reported in the journal Current Biology on September 5, babies under 6 ...

The brain has an astonishing capacity to detect patterns in the world. So much so, that it will often create patterns where none exist. Pareidolia is the tendency to see familiar shapes in random ...

A new motion capture system has been created by the team at Perception Neuron which has been designed to be both adaptive and affordable and uses one of the world’s smallest IMU. The Perception Neuron ...

Motion perception is the process of inferring the speed and direction of objects that move in a visual scene given some visual input. While this process appears straighforward to most observers, it ...

This release is available in German. Surely, everybody knows this phenomenon: an animal doesn't stand out against its background and becomes visible to us only when it moves. The reason behind this is ...

The brain has an astonishing capacity to detect patterns in the world. So much so, it will often create patterns where none exist. Pareidolia is the tendency to see familiar shapes in random objects.

The same group of neurons encode both actual motion and movement perceived in an optical illusion, according to a study on macaques. In this webinar, Evelien Van Hamme and Elina Kuznecova will discuss ...
