Interference effect of body shadow in action control.

abstract：:Several studies and observations of a new form of motion capture are reported: frames containing identical rows of evenly spaced vertical lines are alternated in a standard apparent-motion paradigm. However, one vertical line in the first frame has short horizontal 'terminators' attached; the terminators are shifted t...

During ordinary perception we are generally aware of only one, or perhaps a few of these possibilities. Human vision evidently exploits...
