Theories of attention posit that attentional guidance operates on information held in a target
template within memory. The template is often thought to contain veridical target features …

Peripheral vision is fundamental for many real-world tasks, including walking, driving, and
aviation. Nonetheless, there has been no effort to connect these applied literatures to …

Foveated rendering synthesizes images with progressively less detail outside the eye
fixation region, potentially unlocking significant speedups for wide field-of-view displays …

Virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) are expected to revolutionise entertainment,
healthcare, communication and the manufacturing industries among many others. Near‐eye …

This review discusses several pervasive myths about peripheral vision, as well as what is
actually true: Peripheral vision underlies a broad range of visual tasks, in spite of its …

Foveated rendering is a performance optimization based on the well-known degradation of
peripheral visual acuity. It reduces computational costs by showing a high-quality image in …

The book starts by analyzing the problem of how we can see so well despite what, to an
engineer, might seem like horrendous defects of our eyes. An explanation is provided by a …

Humans and other species explore a visual scene by making rapid eye movements
(saccades) two to three times every second. Although the eyes may appear immobile in the …

Synaptic interactions to extract information about wavelength, and thus color, begin in the
vertebrate retina with three classes of light-sensitive cells: rod photoreceptors at low light …

Display power consumption is an emerging concern for untethered devices. This goes
double for augmented and virtual extended reality (XR) displays, which target high refresh …
