Motion perception
- Submission status
- Open
- Submission deadline
Motion perception plays a fundamental role in our daily visual experience; it is critical for computing the speed and direction of moving objects and controlling our own body and eye movements. Motion perception relies on our visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive systems; therefore, when any of these systems is impaired, motion perception deficits are likely to arise. Approaches to understanding multisensory interaction between these systems is thus crucial for supporting individuals with motion perception disorders.
This Collection welcomes original research articles investigating motion perception and the multiple systems that underlie our ability to perceive object motion, self-motion, and control different parts of our body. Research articles on motion perception disorders and approaches to their diagnosis and treatment are welcome.
