2.5.7 Perception
Perception is how we interpret the sensory inputs we receive.
Through these inputs, we develop an understanding of the current situation
and establish what is known as Situational Awareness (SA).

From the sensory organs, nerves go to different parts of the brain for further
processing.
How the processing or perception takes place is difficult to describe, because
after the senses have been stimulated, one cannot describe the sensory
process, which takes place through nerve pathways to special parts of the brain.
