Motion processing: Where is the naso-temporal asymmetry?
The visual system incorporates a phylogenetically ancient subsystem that responds to overall movement of the retinal image. Its signals induce animals to turn their eyes, heads or bodies to correct the perturbing motion and keep the image as stable as possible. Human optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) is an example: if the eyes are presented with largefield movement, such as the view from the window o...
متن کاملNaso-temporal asymmetry of binocular inhibition.
Binocular rivalry in the periphery of the visual field shows a distinct naso-temporal asymmetry that closely resembles the naso-temporal asymmetry of retinocortical projections. In convergent squint, the fovea of the deviating eye has to compete with the strong temporal hemifield of the contralateral eye. In divergent squint, the fovea competes with the much weaker nasal hemifield. Convergent s...
متن کاملNaso-temporal asymmetry for signals invisible to the retinotectal pathway.
Monocular viewing conditions show an asymmetry between stimuli presented in the temporal and nasal visual fields in their efficiency for automatically triggering eye saccades and grasping attention. For instance, observers free to make a saccade to one of two stimuli presented together orient preferentially to the temporal stimulus. Such naso-temporal asymmetry (NTA) has been assumed to reflect...
متن کاملMotion Processing: Where the Medium Is the Message
The primate retina serves up three channels for visual entertainment, of which just one is used for the primary analysis of motion. A prominent, unique class of neuron has a dominant role in transmission from cortical area V1.
متن کاملAsymmetry in visual motion processing.
The smooth pursuit system is traditionally employed using a single small target moving on a homogeneous background. It still is not fully understood, however, how accurate tracking is sustained in the presence of a structured background, which will activate global motion processing in the opposite direction as a consequence of the ongoing eye movement. To further study this interaction, we used...
