Same curiosity. My niece is an EMT and on many occasions has shown up at long-deceased cat or dog owners places. The dogs will most often lie quietly next to or close to the deceased, and the cats will start dining on the most accessible flesh, typically the face.

Your eye doesn't exactly have a "frame rate." But you still have a minimum time of exposure before you notice something, so this is actually something that applies more to you than robots.

Also you are assuming all computer vision is raster based, like the way images are drawn on a TV screen, (pixel by pixel from top left to bottom right, rows over colums) and you are also assuming that computers will see with images.

Computers can visualize sound, as well as many other things that we are not capable of.

If you're a visual thinker your mind's eye is your visual buffer, so you can't think intensely and see at the same time, indeed a lot of sleight of hand exploits this by prompting you to think about how the trick is being done so you're not actually paying attention.
