Visual processing varies dramatically across the visual field. These differences start in the
retina and continue all the way to the visual cortex. Despite these differences in processing …

Priority maps are winner‐take‐all neural mechanisms thought to guide the allocation of
covert and overt attention. Here, we go beyond this standard definition and argue that …

A number of virtual reality head-mounted displays (HMDs) with integrated eye trackers have
recently become commercially available. If their eye tracking latency is low and reliable …

We perceive a stable environment despite the fact that visual information is essentially
acquired in a sequence of snapshots separated by saccadic eye movements. The resolution …

The existence of a central fovea, the small retinal region with high analytical performance, is
arguably the most prominent design feature of the primate visual system. This centralization …

Humans make frequent movements of the eyes (saccades) to explore the visual
environment. Here, we argue that visuospatial working memory (VSWM) is a fundamental …

Due to the inhomogenous visual representation across the visual field, humans use
peripheral vision to select objects of interest and foveate them by saccadic eye movements …

Human observers make large rapid eye movements—saccades—to bring behaviorally
relevant information into the fovea, where spatial resolution is high. In some visual tasks [1 …

Alfred L. Yarbus was among the first to demonstrate that eye movements actively serve our
perceptual and cognitive goals, a crucial recognition that is at the heart of today's research …

Visual perception is limited by spatial resolution, the ability to discriminate fine details.
Spatial resolution not only declines with eccentricity but also differs for polar angle locations …
