describes the simultaneously delivery of multiple dimensions of sensory information to the brain. (e. g. the simultaneous delivery of color, form, motion and depth information).

Parallel processing describes the simultaneously delivery of multiple dimensions of sensory information to the brain.

The necessity for parallel processing in the visual system is instantly recognized when one contemplates the abundance of qualities that are being in the visual context and the physical constraints of the way this erudition is originally encoded and indicated to the brain.

Colour, intensity, pattern, and action are just some of the various dimensions by which we evaluate our visual environment and create relevant action. At any granted point in the visual field, various ganglion cell models communicate diverse perspectives of the visual input concurrently and in parallel to the brain.
