Neuroscientists have examined the brain of a person with object agnosia, a deficit in the ability to recognize objects, and have uncovered the neural mechanisms of object recognition. The results ...

Optical illusions might be fun to look at in your spare time, but they should never appear in a facility where information must be crystal clear. A misinterpretation of a label or sign could cost a ...

The ability to perceive object motion accurately while in motion oneself is a cornerstone of effective navigation and interaction with the environment. Contemporary research indicates that the brain ...

Using electrodes implanted in the temporal lobes of awake patients, scientists have decoded brain signals at nearly the speed of perception. Further, analysis of patients' neural responses to two ...

The research team led by Masakazu Ohara, graduate student of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Toyohashi University of Technology (student in the Leading Program doctoral program); ...

Our motion perception is remarkably well tuned to detect small changes in speed and direction. For example, soccer goalkeepers need to precisely judge the speed, direction, and curvature of an ...

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 perceptual system parses complex scenes into discrete objects. Parsing is also required for planning visually guided movements when more than one potential target is present. To examine whether ...
