In busy scenes, our object tracking ability helps us keep our minds on the objects of greatest importance, such as oncoming cars. Tracking thus provides a key link between cognition and the sensory world. Experiments in this study will reveal how information from different senses and the two cerebral hemispheres are coordinated, to bring the limited resources of cognitive processing to bear on the objects of greatest importance. Rather than tracking operating via independent spotlights on objects, this project will show how the configuration of objects is used to keep all the spotlights on target. The role of this configural process across the senses and cerebral hemispheres will shed further light on the architecture of our mind's link to the outside world.

在忙碌的场景中，我们的物体跟踪能力帮助我们把注意力集中在最重要的物体上，比如迎面而来的汽车。因此，跟踪提供了认知和感官世界之间的关键联系。这项研究的实验将揭示来自不同感官和两个大脑半球的信息是如何协调的，使有限的认知处理资源能够对最重要的对象产生影响。而不是跟踪操作通过独立的聚光灯的对象，这个项目将显示如何配置的对象是用来保持所有的聚光灯的目标。这种神经过程在感觉和大脑半球中的作用将进一步阐明我们的心灵与外部世界联系的结构。
