Document Summary
3 stages assume peripheral info enters the sys and is processed by 1st stage and when this stage has completed its opera*ons, result is passed onto 2nd stage then to 3rd. Sensory stage analyze env info using vision, auditory, touchetc. Translation mechanism btwn sensory input and movement output. Must direct muscles to contract in proper order, force, timing. Accuracy of being able to predict determined by: exis*ng knowledge of movement situa*on by speed ac*on plan can be retrieved from memory and executed. Single op*c variable provides us w es*mate of *me to contact. Tau mathema*cally de ned as inverse of rate of dila*on an image on the re*na. Faster an approaching object lls the visual eld = the faster the object will contact a par*cular point in space. Performers use tau to *me their ac*ons by determining how quickly the size of an approaching object lls the visual eld.
