So is this like a type of buffering? Saving brain RAM?
Brain interpolating the parts of the image missing due to blood vessels, etc over the retina I think
It's more like shortcutting via pattern recognition
Your eyes are very low resolution outside of the center of your vision, so your brain makes up a lot of missing info to prevent you from noticing. Try reading this comment without moving your eyes, for example. Keep them straight ahead. It is impossible.
Yeah this, most of the sides of the retinas are meant for color distinction and not granular details, the only detailed part of our eyes is very close to center
So what, my brain doesn't let me do a lot of things.
Most I can see is 12, how many are there?
12. The only way I found to mostly break the illusion is to zoom in and you can see 3 at a time. If you rotate your phone, you may be able to see two at once.
It's a sneaky one and I don't remember it working this well on me.
I got all 12 in landscape mode with one eye closed. :)
Unfocus your eyes, it breaks most optical illusions
You sure? I see like a lot of dots at all the intersections
I only see a dot at the intersection I’m focusing on. I wonder what the difference is.
Are you a spider?
It's likely the size of their display
Makes sense, I’m only a phone and saw 12 immediately.
Damn how small is your phone. I tried to put my phone away to make my screen smaller in my FOV and I still can't see every dot. Hmm maybe it's my brain that's malfunctioning.
