A brain is an organ that processes information. In humans, eyes connect to it through optic nerves. Perception happens using a brain. (There is consciousness in a brain.)
A BCI can connect to a brain.
It can be interfaced with a computer system.
A brain has a visual cortex at the back.
A perceptual space is a set of perceptions that a human can have. A human perceptual space is a set of all possible perceptions that can happen in a human brain.
The human perceptual space is largely visual. About eighty to eighty-five percent of our perception, learning, cognition, and activities are mediated through vision.[1] Almost the entire lower half of the cerebral cortex is for processing visual information.[2]
Related concepts are retinotopic mapping and the cortical homunculus.
Retinotopy is the mapping of visual input from the retina to neurons.[3]
