The role of advanced visual information in ball catching was investigated by integrating video images of action and ball projection technology in four different conditions: Integrated video and ball projection (VBP), Video-Only (VO), Ball Projection-Only (BPO) and Misleading Ball projection (MBP).
The DCA near-miss received widespread media coverage, with breathless headlines conjuring images of action-movie explosions and a "massive mid-air collision".Whether those descriptions were accurate remains a subject of some dispute.
Furthermore, there is considerable evidence that the processing of static images of actions in many respects resembles that of full-action displays.
Peter Andreas, author of the book "Border Games: Policing the U.S.-Mexico Divide," called the border efforts a "politically successful policy failure" -- successful at conveying an image of aggressive action, but a failure in deterring either smugglers or migrants.
"He's saying, 'Now I realize that I always believed it' 'Belief of it oppresses me already.' It's probably, to my mind, the greatest literary image of the action of prejudice how a story is told to engage something in the mind that brings with it absolute certainty that derives from the nature of the stereotypes".

The visual detail in an image of intense action or emotion is easier to recall than that of, say, a pretty landscape.
One group (the visual-processing group) was given the task of trying to form a vivid mental picture or image of the action in each phrase, and rate each phrase (on a scale of 1 10) on how simple or difficult it was to visualize.
For example, participants are slower to lift their index finger (a response on the left side of space) when the cue to lift is accompanied by an image of an action on the right, compared with the left, side of space.
In our example, our M value of -0.666 means that, under the conditions given, the image of the action figure will appear upside down and two-thirds its normal size.
