The Vision Group at NASA Ames Research Center was a team of scientists and engineers who conducted research on human vision and visual technology for NASA missions. The Group consisted of the Vision Lab, the Visuomotor Control Laboratory and the Ocular Imaging Laboratory.

The Vision Lab conducted research in varied areas such as visual neuroscience and psychophysics, computational models of visual function and applications of vision science to human factors, displays, imaging technology, and computer vision. The Ocular Imaging Laboratory develops image-based technology for passive eye monitoring, and applies these technologies to scientific problems both basic and applied.

For the past 20 years, the Visuomotor Control Laboratory at NASA Ames Research Center has conducted neuroscience research with the aim of understanding the link between eye movements and brain function.
