The consequences of car accidents could be serious. Good steering control and directed eye movements to sample information from the environment are required when driving at high speed or across hazardous paths. In his lecture, Prof. John Wann will explain his recent proposal that learning "where and when to look" can provide a mechanism to merge experience, learning and knowledge with the blur of visual flow that passes over the retina during high-speed locomotion. Anyone who drives or cycles to work can test the proposal on their way home.
