We move our eyes several times per second. These fast eye movements, called saccades, create large image shifts on the retina -- making our visual system work hard to maintain a stable perceptual ...

How do predators use their vision to both navigate through the terrain while tracking prey running for its life? Pursuing prey through a complex environment is a major challenge for the visual system, ...

Every time the human eye darts from one point to another, the retinal image smears across the visual field. These rapid jumps, called saccades, happen several times per second, yet the world never ...
