Intermediate Visual Space Perception
Recruiting
The ability to judge the locations of various objects from oneself during self-motion in the intermediate distance range (\~2-25m) is crucial for successful performance of activities of daily living, such as walking and driving. However, little is known about the mechanisms of visual space perception involved in judging distance, the focus of this project, in the planning and/or execution of self-motion in the natural 3D environment. The theoretical knowledge to be gained from this project will... Read More
