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.
