This Element examines visual perception in the context of
activities that involve moving about in complex, dynamic
environments. A central theme is that the ability of humans and
other animals to perceive their surroundings based on vision is
profoundly shaped by the need to adaptively regulate locomotion to
variations in the environment. As such, important new insights into
what and how we perceive can be gleaned by investigating the
connection between vision and the control of locomotion. I present
an integrated summary of decades of research on the perception of
self-motion and object motion based on optic flow, the perception
of spatial layout and affordances, and the control strategies for
guiding locomotion based on visual information. I also explore
important theoretical issues and debates, including the question of
whether visual control relies on internal models.
