AbstractThis chapter reviews evidence from numerous studies of inversion effects and preattentive processing that converge in suggesting that the visual system exploits its sensitivity to gravity-defined dynamics to detect the ballistic movements typical of limbed terrestrial animals in locomotion. It is proposed that a local visual filter may be sufficient to detect the gravity-defined dynamics of the most important types of animate motion. This local motion processing mechanism is thought to reflect both innate and learned component processes.
