- Motion perception is a hyperacuity that requires a visual frame of reference to accurately assess relative motion.
- In certain cases, images with amplified motion that align with retinal slip can appear stable, complicating motion detection.
- The study found that having a visual background is crucial for the visual system to determine motion direction, as it can actually lead to misperceptions of moving stimuli.
Background: Hypoxia is a physiological state defined as a reduction in the distribution of oxygen to the tissues of the body. It has been considered a major factor in aviation safety worldwide because of its potential for pilot disorientation. Pilots are able to operate aircrafts up to 3810 m without the use of supplemental oxygen and may exhibit symptoms associated with hypoxia.
