  1. Microsaccade - Wikipedia

    Microsaccades play a crucial role in the perception of objects. Researchers discovered that these motions improve our ability to catch minute details in a scene.

  2. Microsaccade - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

    Microsaccades are small, rapid eye movements that occur when a person is attempting to fixate their gaze on a stationary object. They are typically less than one degree of visual angle in …

  3. Microsaccades reflect attention shifts: a mini review of 20 years of ...

    Feb 19, 2024 · Microsaccades are small, involuntary eye movements that occur during fixation. Since the 1950s, researchers have conducted extensive research on the role of …

  4. Saccade - EyeWiki

    Microsaccades are saccades that range from about 0.01°–0.3° in amplitude and are unconsciously generated during fixation [12]. They appear to correct for fixation errors from …

  5. Vision, Perception, and Attention through the Lens of Microsaccades

    Microsaccades are small saccades. Neurophysiologically, microsaccades are generated using similar brainstem mechanisms as larger saccades. This suggests that peri-saccadic changes …

  6. The impact of microsaccades on vision: towards a unified ... - Nature

    Jan 18, 2013 · Microsaccades are small, rapid eye movements that occur when we are attempting to fix our gaze on one spot.

  7. What Makes a Microsaccade? A Review of 70 Years of Research

    Mar 17, 2020 · A new method for detecting microsaccades in eye-movement data is presented, following a review of reported microsaccade properties between the 1940s and today.

  8. Microsaccades as Attention Probes: Understanding Covert …

    Aug 17, 2025 · Microsaccades are small, rapid eye movements that occur even when a person appears to maintain a stable gaze. These involuntary actions are significant markers for covert …

  9. Microsaccade Characteristics in Neurological and Ophthalmic …

    Mar 13, 2018 · Microsaccade research has recently reached a critical mass of studies that allows, for the first time, a comprehensive review of how microsaccadic dynamics change in …
