Holding several moving objects in mind while watching for two of them to collide is a classic divided-attention demand in pilot selection, the same split focus a radar sector or a busy traffic picture asks for. Memorise the highlighted targets, keep tracking them once every object looks identical, and alert each pair that is about to collide. At the freeze, pick out which objects were your targets.

This measures divided attention: holding a set of identical moving objects in working memory while also scanning the whole field for pairs on a collision course. It splits your focus the same way a busy traffic picture does, where you keep specific contacts in mind without losing sight of the wider scene.
At the flash, group your targets into a rough shape (a pair on the left, one near the top) instead of locking onto each one. Then keep part of your attention on the whole field so a fast closing pair does not slip past while you track.
Strong candidates stay accurate on both tasks as the speed and object count rise. Aim to find all your targets and to alert real collisions a second or two before they happen, without spraying false alarms. Get consistent at Medium before stepping up to Hard.
