Lecture: Slower, faster, or about the same? An introduction into factors affecting visual motion perception

Optometrists are excellent at monitoring eye health and testing spatial visual resolution; however, a standard eye test does not typically incorporate tests of temporal (motion) perception, which raises the question – is there any need for a standard test of motion processing? This talk will serve as a fun introduction to: features of motion perception; methods and approaches of measuring motion perception; and factors affecting motion perception.

Learning outcome:

Practitioners will recognise the features of motion perception, how it can be measured and the factors which affect it (s.5).
