Eye position signals modulate early dorsal and ventral visual areas.
An internal sense of eye position is necessary to maintain the constancy of the visual world in spite of movements of the eyes. Neuroimaging studies have localized human homologs of monkey visual motion processing areas in MT/MST and also in the collateral sulcus (V4), an area that codes features within objects. We show that these two areas have a baseline fMRI signal that is modulated by eye p...
متن کاملDynamics of Eye-Position Signals in the Dorsal Visual System
BACKGROUND Many visual areas of the primate brain contain signals related to the current position of the eyes in the orbit. These cortical eye-position signals are thought to underlie the transformation of retinal input-which changes with every eye movement-into a stable representation of visual space. For this coding scheme to work, such signals would need to be updated fast enough to keep up ...

متن کاملVisual and proprioceptive shifts in perceived egocentric direction induced by eye-position
The relation of three main effects of eye-position on perceived direction was investigated using a method of hand pointing in the horizontal plane: (1) Retinal eccentricity is overestimated with respect to the fovea by a constant factor of 2.6 degrees; (2) an extraretinal signal induces a shift in perceived visual direction (slope 0.12) that is opposite to the direction of eccentric gaze; and (...
متن کاملPerception of auditory, visual, and egocentric spatial alignment adapts differently to changes in eye position.
Vision and audition represent the outside world in spatial synergy that is crucial for guiding natural activities. Input conveying eye-in-head position is needed to maintain spatial congruence because the eyes move in the head while the ears remain head-fixed. Recently, we reported that the human perception of auditory space shifts with changes in eye position. In this study, we examined whethe...
