This final chapter is concerned with how information is combined across saccades. The first section focuses on evidence for the detection of displacement during saccades or whether trans-saccadic fusion occurs. It is concluded that there is little evidence that detailed visual information is integrated at all across saccades. The chapter then provides an alternative account for the problem of integration across saccades and visual stability. In the conclusion to this chapter, the active vision cycle is described along with a description of the limitations of the active vision approach and points to some possible future directions.
Keywords: detection of displacement, saccades, trans-saccadic fusion, visual integrated, visual stability, active vision cycle
