Using miniature 3D 'glasses', researchers demonstrate insects do use stereopsis for hunting. The findings could help to improve visual perception in robots.
While people with aphantasia lack visual imagery ability, they have intact spatial memory. Findings suggest mental imagery recall and spatial memory may be stored differently in the brain.
Contrary to popular belief, a child's visual perception does not reach adult level at age seven. A new study reveals children's visual perception continues to develop and does not reach maturity until age ten.
Researchers detail how the visual cortex and retina work together in visual motion perception.
A new computer program can identify drawn objects more successfully than humans can.
A new study reports on how simultaneous counter-change of luminance at the borders between object and background triggers activity waves in the visual brain.
People with depression often experience problems with visual perception. Researchers report issues with visual perception are likely linked to information processing differences in the cerebral cortex.
Researchers are developing a new brain-to-brain communication headset that will allow the transfer of visual information from those with sight to the blind. The non-invasive system will 'write' information to neurons reprogrammed to fire in response to magnetic signals.
Researchers report fetuses at 34 week gestation will turn their heads and pay more attention to face like shapes.
Researchers have identified neurons in the visual cortex that enable the detection of moving objects as we move along.
A new study illustrates how individuals with face blindness are still able to recognize other people's movements.
It may be harder to recognize familiar faces when they wear a surgical mask to protect against COVID-19, a new study reports. Researchers noted a 15% drop in the ability for people to recognize faces when they were masked.
