Peripheral visual cues contribute to the perception of object movement during self-movement
Safe movement through the environment requires us to monitor our surroundings for moving objects or people. However, identification of moving objects in the scene is complicated by self- movement, which adds motion across the retina. To identify world-relative object movement, the brain thus has to ‘compensate for’ or ‘parse out’ the components of retinal motion that are due...
Ability to identify scene-relative object movement is not limitedby, or yoked to, ability to perceive heading
During locomotion humans can judge where they are heading relative to the scene and the movement of objects within the scene. Both judgements rely on identifying global components of optic flow. What is the relationship between the perception of heading, and the identification of object movement during self-movement? Do they rely on a shared mechanism? One way to address...
