visual processing models

Visual processing models describe how our brains interpret the images we see. These models suggest that visual information is first captured by our eyes and then sent to the brain, where it’s broken down into basic features like edges, colors, and movements. The brain then combines these features to recognize objects, scenes, and faces. Different models propose various ways this happens—some emphasize step-by-step analysis, while others focus on rapid, holistic recognition. Overall, these models help us understand how our brains turn raw visual input into meaningful understanding of our environment.
