The mechanisms responsible for the flash-lag effect cannot provide the motor prediction that we need in daily life

Research output: Contribution to Journal › Article › Academic › peer-review

Abstract

The visual prediction that Nijhawan proposes cannot explain why the flash-lag effect depends on what happens after the flash. Moreover, using a visual prediction based on retinal image motion to compensate for neuronal time delays will seldom be of any use for motor control, because one normally pursues objects with which one intends to interact with ones eyes. © Cambridge University Press 2008.
