Eye movements: viewing the window of opportunity.
When searching with our eyes, parallel programming of successive eye movements ensures that visual information arriving too late to alter the direction of one eye movement can still influence the direction of the next. Paradoxically, we can use random noise to probe the time period over which visual information influences where next to direct our gaze.
