Jones' Theory of Image Scanning

Jones' Theory of Image Scanning explains how our visual system processes complex images by systematically "scanning" or examining different parts of the image. Rather than perceiving everything at once, our brain directs attention sequentially across the image, focusing on specific areas to interpret details and overall meaning. This method helps us efficiently analyze visual information, especially in complex scenes, by breaking down images into manageable segments for our perception to interpret effectively.
