Predictive fixations to target bounces in an interception task

This study builds on previous research by demonstrating that predictive fixations align with future target trajectories during a dynamic interception task. Using a threshold-based classification of eye movements, it quantifies anticipatory gaze behavior before and after target rebounds. The findings show that entry and exit angles, target speed, and visual masking systematically influence predictive fixations. Together, these results underscore the critical role of predictive mechanisms in visuomotor control, particularly in adapting gaze behavior to dynamic and uncertain environments.
