visual motion processing

Visual motion processing is how our brain detects and interprets movement in our environment. When we see an object move, specialized cells in our eyes and brain analyze changes in light patterns over time. These cells send signals to areas of the brain, like the visual cortex, which interpret the direction, speed, and location of the movement. This process allows us to perceive motion accurately, helping us navigate, catch objects, and understand our surroundings. It's a complex system that integrates information from various cells to create a seamless perception of motion in our visual world.
