Researchers use afterimages to prove the brain predicts eye movements with 94% accuracy, revealing the internal "efference copy" mechanism that keeps our vision stable.

The ghosts we see: Afterimages provide clues to how our brains perceive a stable environment
Our eyes alone do not provide us with a continuous and stable view of the world. They jump several times each second in rapid movements called saccades. Because the eye projects the world onto the ...

Study: The brain predicts images during eye jumps to stabilize vision
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 ...
What motivates or drives the human eye to fixate on a target and how, then, is that visual image perceived? What is the lag time between our visual acuity and our reaction to the observation? In the ...
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 ...
Researchers reconstructed what predatory mammals see during pursuit and found that saccades align the retina to world motion and not the actual prey.These eye movements enable the world to remain ...
