Visual Temporal Integration (TVI) is a perceptual process of integrating a continuous, and rapid stream of information into discrete perceptual episodes or ‘events’. Arguably, integrating over small temporal windows, as opposed to sampling ‘snapshots’, allows the brain to evaluate visual information more reliably. VTI by the brain reflects an important property of the world: the closer in time two pieces of information occur, the more likely it is that they will be part of the same ‘event’. Several other factors determine the brain’s integration window. For instance, the expectation of rapidly changing events in the environment decreases the temporal window. Also, stimulus factors such as duration and luminance affect VTI.[1]
