Everything about Visual processing
Cognitive ability to interpret visual information
Visual processing is the brain's ability to use and interpret visual information from the world. The process of converting light into a meaningful image is a complex process that is facilitated by numerous brain structures and higher-level cognitive processes. Wikipedia →
