title: Integrating visual information from successive fixations: does trans-saccadic fusion exist?
abstract: It has recently been suggested that there exists a level i the nervous system where a kind of photographic representation of our visual environment is constructed from "snapshots" taken by successive eye fixations. An experiment is presented that argues against this view, and an alternative explanation is put forward to explain why we see the environment as being stable and continuous despite eye movements.
