Eyes, Brain, Action!








                 You see movement all around you, from birds flying
                 in the sky to a video playing on a screen .

                 But how do you actually see these things?


                 To see motion, your eyes and brain work
                 together . First, light bounces off moving

                 objects or comes from a source such
                 as a video screen . This light comes to

                 your eyes . From there, nerves send signals
                 to the brain . The brain uses this information

                 along with past experiences to interpret motion .

                Images on electronic                                              to the eyes.
                screens appear to
                move when tiny
                colored dots or squares
                called pixels change
                hue and brightness.
