visual

adj

1. Related to or affecting the vision.

   “Earless ghost swift moths become “invisible” to echolocating bats by forming mating clusters close[…]above vegetation and effectively blending into the clutter of echoes that the bat receives from the leaves and stems around them. Many insects probably use this strategy, which is a close analogy to crypsis in the visible world—camouflage and other methods for blending into one’s visual background.”

2. (obsolete)That can be seen; visible.

noun

1. Any element of something that depends on sight.

   “It wasn't the first time I pulled an all-nighter, but normally I was coming off an acid trip and still seeing visuals dancing around in my head.”

2. An image; a picture; a graphic.
3. (in-plural)All the visual elements of a multimedia presentation or entertainment, usually in contrast with normal text or audio.

5. Any element of a show done by a marching band besides the marching and playing of instruments.
