: Why do we not get disoriented by our own vision?

230 views

When someone films with a handheld camera and they’re walking or running, the video is shaky and annoying, sometimes leading to disorientation. Why then do we not get disoriented by what we see through our own vision when we’re moving around, say when we’re climbing stairs or running, etc?

Our brains automatically edit-out the movements our eyes are constantly making.

Our eyes never stand still, and even when you focus on an object your eyes don’t just stay there if you pay attention, they still move.
