Temporal Integration of Visual Information

How do observers integrate information through time? How is the integration affected by the motion of the signal (motion compensated integration)? Is the integration constrained by the low-level filters that limit temporal resolution? Can observers differentially weight information through time to optimize visual integration? How efficienty are observers at integrating information with respect to the optimal observer?
How does what we know about human visual temporal integration help us optimize displays to maximize visual performance?
