Eye movement modifies motion trajectory of a moving target.
Smooth pursuit eye movements have strong modulating effects on perceived motion both temporally and spatially. Abrupt changes in the direction of a target cause non-veridical perceived velocity and trajectory pattern when a visual cues appear with the moving target. In addition, this condition of non-veridical velocity and trajectory perception increases no visual cues are presented. Non-veridical perception was also connected with target velocity: the more difficult the eye pursuit, the more frequent was the non-veridical perception.
