TLDR
The maximum speed for attentive tracking of targets was measured in three types of (radial) motion displays: ambiguous motion where only attentive tracking produced an impression of direction, apparent motion, and continuous motion, where evidence was found for a speed limit to attentive tracking, a maximum rate at which attention could follow a path around the display.About:

Tracking multiple targets with multifocal attention.
TL;DR: This research has implications for computer vision, where there is a growing demand for multiple-object tracking and properties defining a 'trackable' target, the maximum number of targets that can be tracked, and the hemifield independence of the tracking process are identified.

Visual stability based on remapping of attention pointers
Patrick Cavanagh,Patrick Cavanagh,Amelia R. Hunt,Amelia R. Hunt,Arash Afraz,Arash Afraz,Martin Rolfs +6 more
TL;DR: It is argued that these location pointers, the core operators of spatial attention, are linked to identity information and that such a link is necessary to establish a workable visual architecture and to explain frequently reported positive spatiotopic biases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Attentional modulation in visual cortex depends on task timing.
TL;DR: The attentional modulation of sensory neurons reflects a subject's anticipation of the timing of behaviourally relevant events and is shown to reflect the allocation of attention over time.

The 'when' pathway of the right parietal lobe.
Lorella Battelli,Alvaro Pascual-Leone,Alvaro Pascual-Leone,Patrick Cavanagh,Patrick Cavanagh +4 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the right parietal lobe serves as part of a when pathway for both visual fields, and it is proposed that the disruption of this mechanism is the underlying cause of a wide range of seemingly unrelated tasks being impaired inright parietal patients.

Motion distorts visual space: shifting the perceived position of remote stationary objects.
David Whitney,Patrick Cavanagh +1 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that motion's influence on position is not restricted to the moving object itself, and that even the positions of stationary objects are coded by mechanisms that receive input from motion-sensitive neurons.

Receptive fields and functional architecture of monkey striate cortex
David H. Hubel,Torsten N. Wiesel +1 more
TL;DR: The striate cortex was studied in lightly anaesthetized macaque and spider monkeys by recording extracellularly from single units and stimulating the retinas with spots or patterns of light, with response properties very similar to those previously described in the cat.

Mental Rotation of Three-Dimensional Objects
TL;DR: The time required to recognize that two perspective drawings portray objects of the same three-dimensional shape is found to be a linearly increasing function of the angular difference in the portrayed orientations of the two objects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatiotemporal energy models for the perception of motion
TL;DR: In this article, the first stage consists of linear filters that are oriented in space-time and tuned in spatial frequency, and the outputs of quadrature pairs of such filters are squared and summed to give a measure of motion energy.

Foundations of Cyclopean Perception
TL;DR: Foundations of Cyclopean Perception as mentioned in this paper is a classic work on cyclopean perception that has influenced a generation of vision researchers, cognitive scientists, and neuroscientists and has inspired artists, designers, and computer graphics pioneers.
