    How to use "Apparent movement" in context?

    When you first glimpse movement, what instantly registers is that something seems to have changed. This sense of apparent movement is generated by the optics of the eye and depends on the naked-eye stimulus tests, which measure the Psychophysical depth of visual field. In general, when an object moves within the visual field, the periphery is updated faster than the central region. This appears as a change in the apparent size and shape of the object.

    In some cases, apparent movement may be simply an illusion.
