Abstract

The ability to transform or manipulate visual information is a perceptual-cognitive skill of central importance in normal perceptual processing and in perceptually driven tasks requiring the use of imagery or the comparison of spatially transformed visual input to a representation of that input in memory. In most cases, image transformation occurs at a level of processing following and relying upon object identification; however, some forms of manipulation of visual information (e.g., integration and transformation of different views of an object) may be involved in the process of identification. For certain pilot performance problems (including those consisting of detection and identification), image manipulation is unlikely to be an important component of operation. For other tasks facing the pilot (including aspects of navigation, localization of a target in a visual array, and comparison of current visual input with previously available views), transformation of visual information may play a central role in performance.
