Perceiving Time to Collision Activates the Sensorimotor Cortex
The survival of many animals hinges upon their ability to avoid collisions with other animals or objects, or to precisely control the timing of collisions. Optical expansion provides a compelling impression of object approach and in principle can provide the basis for judgments of time to collision (TTC) [1]. It has been demonstrated that pigeons [2] and houseflies [3] have neural systems that ...
متن کاملPerceiving the topological structure of space through sensorimotor interaction
This paper deals with the perception of mobile robotic systems within the framework of interactive perception, and inspired by the sensorimotor contingencies theory. These approaches state that perception is an ability built from the motor and sensory data that an agent/robot experiences through its environment exploration. In a recent article, the authors have shown that the perception of spac...

متن کاملTime-to-collision and Collision Avoidance Systems
In research on Traffic Conflicts Techniques, Time-To-Collision (TTC) has proven to be an effective measure for rating the severity of traffic conflicts and for discriminating critical from normal behaviour. The results of several studies point to the direct use of TTC as a cue for decision-making in traffic. The current development of driver support systems based on the application of modern te...
متن کاملStereological study of the cerebral and cerebellar cortex following short time exposure to morphine in rats
Drug abuse has been claimed to cause the loss of neurons and reduction of volume in both the adult and developing brain. This study examined cortex volumes in cerebrum and cerebellum of male rats that were dependent on morphine using unbiased stereological counting methods and systematic random sampling technique. Our goal was to test whether short time exposure to morphine can affect the corte...
