Thats really fast. Can it be result of many hours shooter computer games practice? Newly wired fast path for pressing button. Edit: just run some reaction test

Thats really fast. Can it be result of many hours shooter computer games practice? Newly wired fast path for pressing button.
Edit: just run some reaction tests with about 0.25 avg. I see, ie. mentally identify, the signal at ~1/5 - 1/10th of that time. The rest of the time is material muscle reaction and actual mouse button movement down. So, with hand trained for the movement (my fingers can't even take a simple accord on guitar - compare to virtuosos playing musical instruments ) and good quick button i see how it can be down to ~50ms at least.
- abeppu 16y agoHonest question : how did you measure how long it took you to 'mentally identify' something?
- VladRussian 16y agoit just an estimate. The motor reaction in my case is taking most of the time, around 0.2s. So the rest is the time it takes to see and identify. It is also pretty compatible with basic estimates : 10-20ms for several layers of neurons in primary visual cortex signal processing and about the same for several layers in the upper layer.
