The point-light walker display is a technique used to identify a moving object based on the pattern of movement of its limbs, rather than on the physical appearance of the object. In this scenario, watching a video of the dog trotting in normal motion would provide the viewer with the necessary movement patterns to recognize the dog using the point-light walker display. The upside-down video and still images would not provide enough information about the movement patterns of the dog's limbs, and therefore would not be useful for this purpose.
