In a sport like volleyball where the objective is to hit the ball over a net, I need to be able to calculate the best angle to achieve this goal. My retina processes light-energy into rods and cones. These rods and cones process color and detail that allow me to identify objects. Parallel processing further expands on this identification. The brain divides visuals into four subdimensions: color, movement, form, and depth and works of each simultaneously into order to form a picture. My brain uses the information projected by the retina, compares it to information that has already been collected and enables me to recognize the object that is coming towards me as the volleyball. When two-dimensional images are viewed through our retinas, we organize them into three-dimensional perceptions. Depth perception is the ability to see objects as three-dimensional and estimate how far they are from us. Volleyball incorporates four different ways to hit the ball: bump, set, spike, and dig. When to use each of these hitting techniques is determined by where the ball is in relation to me. If the ball is angle is closer to the ground, bumping or digging may be the best option. However, if the ball is angle is high, setting or spiking is more appropriate. Using depth perception, I am able to determine the distance and angle of where the ball is going, move into a position that is underneath or near the ball, place my hands in a way that
