Abstract:
The aim of this study is to investigate the processes that underlie image motion detection in human vision. To do this I have investigated motion perception for a wide range of stimulus velocities across the visual field, and have made use of different stimuli. Two mechanisms were revealed at different positions across the visual field as a result of the examination of the temporal properties of the Lower Threshold of Motion (LTM), that is, the lowest velocity that is reliably detected. The results for central vision showed that the LTM is mediated by a code that utilizes the spatial displacem

Abstract:
Observation of human movements provides a rich source of information about the physical and internal states of those around us. The thesis examines behavioural and brain responses to movement observation. The thesis starts by examining how observers' visual perception of point-light displays of human arm movements is influenced when the movements are perturbed by the introduction of temporal offsets into position data. From this it extends the technique of movement perturbation to whole-body ballet movements and examines, in novices and experts, the effect of temporal offsets put into position

Abstract:
The temporal integration period of the visual system for both stationary and moving objects is known to be over 100 ms in daylight. One might expect from this that motion blur should considerably degrade our percepts of moving objects. However, we are able to see moving objects with clarity. Some authors have suggested that there are special motion-deblurring mechanisms to prevent motion degradation. The proposed mechanisms are motion-tuned: integration follows the motion path of the object. The aim of this work was to study the properties of visual motion blur and their implications for possi

Abstract:
Sensitivity to differential motion components, shearing and compressive (opposed) motion, was examined. The hypothesis that the visual system contains local mechanisms specifically sensitive to these types of motion was tested. Stimuli consisted of two moving sinusoidal gratings. Sensitivity to shear and compression was compared with sensitivity for linear motion. Lower thresholds of motion and contrast sensitivities were obtained. Subjects were more sensitive to opposed than to non-opposed motion for a range of grating orientations and different grating spatial frequencies. However sensitivit

Abstract:
Relative retinal image motion from active observer movement in the environment, often called motion parallax, provides an important source of information both for segmentation and depth perception. Two distinct boundary types occur as a result of such movement: boundaries that are parallel to the direction of movement give rise to a shearing motion, whereas boundaries orthogonal to the direction of movement create dynamic occlusion. This dissertation examines the role and importance of such types of motion boundaries in motion parallax, and how head and eye movements influence them. We psychop

While much research characterizes performance in terms of dot speed, there is evidence that different spatial and temporal components can impact performance on this task in adults and in children.

The use of remote teach controls for programming industrial robots has led to concern over programmer safety and reliability. The primary issue is the close proximity to the robot arm required for the programmer or maintainer to clearly see the tool actions, and it is feared that errors in robot control could result in injury. The further concern that variations in teach control design could cause "negative transfer" of learning has led to a call for standardisation of robot teach controls. However,at present there is insufficient data to provide suitable design recommendations. This is becaus

Abstract:
Les travaux présentés dans ce manuscrit s'inscrivent dans le contexte de la simulation de conduite et plus concrètement dans celui des simulateurs de conduite dynamique a hautes performances utilises pour la validation des systèmes avances et du véhicule autonome. Afin de répondre aux enjeux de performance et de perception du mouvement, nous présentons différentes approches d’amélioration des algorithmes de restitution de mouvement (MCA). L'ensemble de nos études montre que la stratégie de contrôle prédictif est le meilleur choix pour contrôler les mouvements des nouveaux simulateurs a hautes
