Flow fields never get old

I guess we are all doing physics now

Good reminder that visual acuity and binocular eye movements are very limited in newborns. Optic flow is one of the few remaining depth cues (lozierinstitute.org/dive-deeper/...).

You mean the one in the center? :^)

Are rotational dynamics just traveling waves?
