摘要
The time it takes to transmit information along the human visual pathways introduces a substantial delay in the processing of images that fall on the retina. This visual latency might be expected to cause a moving object to be perceived at a position behind its actual one, disrupting the accuracy of visually guided motor actions such as catching or hitting, but this does not happen. It has been proposed that the perceived position of a moving object is extrapolated forwards in time to compensate for the delay in visual processing1,2,3.
