Sensory memory gives you additional time to try to recognize a stimulus. It is a very brief memory storage system that holds information from your senses (vision, hearing, taste, touch, and smell) for a very short period of time, ranging from milliseconds to several seconds. Sensory memory is not usually stored permanently unless it is transferred to short-term or long-term memory through attention and repetition. It can help you recognize familiar patterns or stimuli and provide a buffer while processing incoming information.
