Study Notes
Motion Detection in the Visual System
- Human nonverbal communication involves gestures, dynamic facial expressions, and whole body movements
- Lips movements play a significant role in verbal communication
- Object movement in the real world results in motion across the retina
- Sequential activation of adjacent receptors is used to signal motion
- A simple motion detection circuit involves retinal movement and comparator neurons
- The comparator neuron detects motion from spatially separated receptor cells with a temporal delay between them
- The neural circuit is selectively responsive to motion from left to right
- Motion detectors are sensitive to the properties of the motion stimulus, particularly velocity
- Cells in the rabbit retina are directionally selective, suggesting a building block for motion models
- The Reichardt model contains banks of temporal and spatial filters used to detect motion
- Simple motion detectors don't account for the perception of second-order motion
- Motion detection in the primate visual system is based on the same principles but located in the visual cortex, involving immediate neurons and receptive fields.
