“…Humans are adept at detecting weak coherent motion amidst a background of incoherent motion (Raymond, 1994;van de Grind, Koenderink, van Doorn, Milders, & Voerman, 1993;Williams & Sekuler, 1984; but see Barlow & Tripathy, 1997), are very accurate at judging the direction in which objects are moving (Gros, Blake, & Hiris, 1998;De Bruyn & Orban, 1988;Pasternak & Merigan, 1984;Ball & Sekuler, 1982), and, under optimal conditions, are keenly sensitive to slight differences in the speed at which objects are moving (Chen, Bedell, & Frishman, 1998;McKee & Welch, 1989;De Bruyn & Orban, 1988;Orban, De Wolf, & Maes, 1984). In addition, motion provides a potent source of information for specifying the 3-D shapes of objects (Tittle & Perotti, 1998;Sperling, Landy, Dosher, & Perkins, 1989;Lappin & Fuqua, 1983;Rogers & Graham, 1979;Wallach & O'Connell, 1953).…”
