This Demonstration shows the retinal motion and pursuit rates for your choice of 
and 
in the case of a fixate and distractor on the 
axis and an observer moving at 6.5 cm/sec (interocular distance per second) to the right on the 
axis. The observer's eyes are "fixed" on the point 
(the "fixate" point). "Fixation" means the ray from TextData["
"] through the eye node strikes the fovea at the center of the retina (see: Fixation and Distraction (Visual Depth Perception 5)).

Details
This Demonstration is for the case of a fixate and distractor on the 
axis and an observer moving at speed 6.5 cm/sec (interocular distance per second) to the right on the 
axis. Additional details of this framework are given in the Demonstration "Motion/Pursuit Law in 1D (Visual Depth Perception 1)". This Demonstration shows a different graphical representation of the dynamic quantities.
If you know 
, pursuit at speed 
is given by the formula
at 
. Once you know 
and 
, time zero motion is given by the formula
.
All the points on the red line have the same M/P ratio and same relative depth. The brown curves have the same 
and the vertical blue lines have the same 
.
The eye parameters 
, 
, 
, etc. are described in the Demonstration "Eye Parameters (Visual Depth Perception 6)" in the Related Links.
