Motion created by eye movements helps the brain judge distance and movement in 3D space, offering new insights into how stable vision works.

To what extent has Earth's gravity shaped our cognitive and brain functions? Utilizing spaceflight and a ground-based analog, a new study shows that the human brain relies on bodily gravitational ...

Sensory illusions reveal how the brain creates coherence when signals don’t align. In autism and ADHD, perception often ...

When you go for a walk, how does your brain know the difference between a parked car and a moving car? This seemingly simple ...

The visual perception of optical stimuli demands high performance from the brain. Every second, the eyes absorb more than 10 million pieces of information and transmit them to the brain via thousands ...

For the first time, neuroscientists have established a link between shifts in our visual perception and the cadence of our steps while walking. The research, published in Nature Communications, shows ...

Robots and self-driving cars could soon benefit from a new kind of brain-inspired hardware that can allegedly detect movement and react faster than a human. A new study published in the journal Nature ...

An Optical Illusion is a type of puzzle that requires cognitive skills, a high IQ, and keen visual perception. As per Claus-Christian Carbon, Professor at the University of Bamberg, Germany, these ...
