Visual differentiation of moving objects

Abstract

A test of ability to discriminate fine details in moving objects was constructed, using marked and unmarked clear glass spheres rolling down an incline. Subjects were tested with the spheres rolling toward them and with the spheres rolling past them. Differences between side and end view results indicate the possibility of approaches such as this aiding in the design of industrial machines. Correlations between scores on the moving object test and the Ortho-Rater visual skills test were positive, but low. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
