Abstract:Previous research (Andersen & Kim, 2001) has shown that a linear trajectory collision event is specified by objects that expand and maintain a constant bearing (the object projected location in the visual field). In this research, we investigated the temporal characteristics in detecting such imminent collision events. Two experiments were conducted in which participants were presented with displays simulating a single approaching object in the scene while observers were either stationary or moving at one of t… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
