Sensory Integration: Neuronal Filters for Polarized Light Patterns
Animal and human behaviour relies on local sensory signals that are often ambiguous. A new study shows how tuning neuronal responses to celestial cues helps locust navigation, demonstrating a common principle of sensory information processing: the use of matched filters.
متن کاملSensory Integration: Neuronal Adaptations for Robust Visual Self-Motion Estimation
Recent studies on the fly visual system have revealed how the morphology of visual interneurons and their lateral electrical connectivity helps overcome a notorious problem in visuomotor control - the ambiguity of local sensor signals.
متن کاملSensory Integration and Autistic Spectrum Disorder
The theory and practice of sensory integration were developed in the late 1960s by an occupational therapist and psychologist, Dr. A. Jean Ayres [1]. Also, known as sensory processing, it is “the neurological process that organizes sensation from one’s own body and from the environment and makes it possible to use the body effectively within the environment” [1].
متن کاملPolarized He spin filters for neutron science
The large spin dependence of the absorption cross section for neutrons by He gas provides a method to polarize neutron beams. For certain applications, such polarized He-based neutron ”spin filters” have advantages over conventional neutron optical polarizing methods. Spin filters operate at all neutron wavelengths, can cover a large angular range and/or a large energy range, and decouple neutr...
متن کاملPatterns and properties of polarized light in air and water.
Natural sources of light are at best weakly polarized, but polarization of light is common in natural scenes in the atmosphere, on the surface of the Earth, and underwater. We review the current state of knowledge concerning how polarization and polarization patterns are formed in nature, emphasizing linearly polarized light. Scattering of sunlight or moonlight in the sky often forms a strongly...
