SACADA Rapid movements that both eyes perform simultaneously when they are looking towards a point in the same direction. Both humans and many animal species do not see only looking at a specific point statically. In order to capture as much information as possible, and that no detail escapes, it is necessary to move your eyes. With saccadic movements it is possible to scan the environment and function as a scanner to obtain a three-dimensional map of the observed place, with all its details. Mentally we collect the information and mentally construct a volume and not a plane or several planes or cuts perpendicular to the direction of the gaze.
