Directional Anisotropies Reveal a Functional Segregation of Visual Motion Processing for Perception and Action
Human exhibits an anisotropy in direction perception: discrimination is superior when motion is around horizontal or vertical rather than diagonal axes. In contrast to the consistent directional anisotropy in perception, we found only small idiosyncratic anisotropies in smooth pursuit eye movements, a motor action requiring accurate discrimination of visual motion direction. Both pursuit and pe...
متن کاملOrientation perception anisotropies indicate functional segregation within the color system.
When stimuli are luminance-defined, the visual system is known to prefer those that are radially oriented with respect to the point of fixation over tangentially oriented ones (the radial bias effect). In two contrast detection experiments and an orientation discrimination experiment, we investigated whether the radial bias effect also exists for chromatic stimuli. The contrast detection experi...
متن کاملMotion processing, directional selectivity, and conscious visual perception in the human brain.
Several human and monkey studies have demonstrated a close relationship between motion perception and activation of area V5, leading to the general view that activity in this area correlates with the subjective experience of motion. In the present study, we investigate whether the responses of this area are still governed by the motion percept when the latter is in conflict with the reality of ...
متن کاملProcessing reafferent and exafferent visual information for action and perception.
A recent study suggests that reafferent hand-related visual information utilizes a privileged, attention-independent processing channel for motor control. This process was termed visuomotor binding to reflect its proposed function: linking visual reafferences to the corresponding motor control centers. Here, we ask whether the advantage of processing reafferent over exafferent visual informatio...
متن کاملThe role of cortical area V5/MT+ in speed-tuned directional anisotropies in global motion perception
Several different directional anisotropies have been found in global motion perception. The purpose of this study was to examine the role of the motion sensitive cortical area V5/MT+ in directional anisotropies for translational flow fields. Experiments 1 and 2 tested direction discrimination and detection of moving random dot patterns. When the speed of motion was 8 deg/s, lower coherence thre...
