Attending to Moving Objects
Häftad, 2023
300 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Our minds are severely limited in how much information they can extensively process, in spite of being massively parallel at the visual end. When people attempt to track moving objects, only a limited number can be tracked, which varies with display parameters. Associated experiments indicate that …
