Your brain is constantly processing the inputs from all of your senses and pretty much ignoring them if they fit with what it is already expecting.
Your brain is lazy. If everything seems to fit with what your brain expects then you believe that what you are seing is reality and you generally ignore it.
Generally the mind only focuses on what it believes is salient/interesting/unexpected.
Imagine if we had image sensors that could filter like that. Boom, video 100 times smaller in size. "Autonomous" surveillance cameras running on fractions of the power. Etc. Etc. Just far more efficient.
That's actually how a lot of video codecs work, they just throw a key frame in every so often that has the full image so you can just do diffs for the rest of the frames till the next key frame.
We do have those things. That's how many technologies already work.
Yes. We get hints of this now and then when digital TV breaks up and only the moving parts are updating until the next key frame arrives.
