Extrastriate area MST and parietal area VIP similarly represent forward headings.
Many studies have documented the involvement of medial superior temporal extrastriate area (MST) in the perception of heading based on optic flow information. Furthermore, both heading perception and the responses of MST neurons are relatively stable in the presence of eye movements that distort the retinal flow information on which perception is based. Area VIP in the posterior parietal cortex...

متن کاملDisparity sensitivity of neurons in monkey extrastriate area MST.
We tested the disparity sensitivity of neurons from the medial superior temporal area (MST) in awake behaving monkeys. While the monkey looked at a fixation spot on a screen in front of it, random dot stimuli moved in the preferred direction of the cell under study, and the disparity of the dots made the stimuli appear to move in a frontoparallel plane in front of, on, or behind the screen. Ove...
متن کاملOptic flow signals in extrastriate area MST: comparison of perceptual and neuronal sensitivity.
The medial superior temporal area of extrastriate cortex (MST) contains signals selective for nonuniform patterns of motion often termed "optic flow." The presence of such tuning, however, does not necessarily imply involvement in perception. To quantify the relationship between these selective neuronal signals and the perception of optic flow, we designed a discrimination task that allowed us ...
متن کاملNeuronal and psychophysical sensitivity to motion signals in extrastriate area MST of the macaque monkey.
We recorded the responses of single neurons in extrastriate area MST while rhesus monkeys discriminated the direction of motion in a set of stochastic visual displays. By varying systematically the strength of a coherent motion signal within the visual display, we were able to measure simultaneously the monkeys' psychophysical thresholds for direction discrimination and the responses of single ...
