How we detect second-order motion, i.e., motion defined by higher-order properties like texture contrast, has been a matter of controversies. Models of early-level detection have been proposed, but recent psychophysical results suggest higher-level processing based on feature tracking. Here I review recent studies including our visual search experiments to discuss the role of feature tracking and/or attention, and to find compromise between low-level and high-level accounts.
