The visual system is the physiological basis of visual perception (the ability to detect and process light). The system detects, transduces and interprets information concerning light within the visible range to construct an image and build a mental model of the surrounding environment.
19 gru 2022 · Structure and Function. The visual system consists of 2 primary parallel pathways: optic and pupillary reflex pathways. Optic Pathway The optic pathway begins in the retina, a complex structure of 10 layers, each serving a distinct function.
Here, we provide an overview of how visual information is processed along the ventral visual cortex in the human brain. We discuss how neurophysiological recordings in macaque monkeys and in humans can help us understand the computations performed by visual cortex.
19 sty 2012 · The system for noticing objects goes on to dorsal areas of the brain, including parietal and frontal cortices, and is known as the “where pathway.” The pathways are kept separate in layers in the lateral geniculate and V1, and in columns in all areas of cortex.
Learning Objectives. 6.1.1 Describe the region of the electromagnetic spectrum that is perceived by our visual system, and the relative energy of photons at long and short wavelengths. 6.1.2 Describe the major parts of the eye and their role in focusing light to create a clear image. In this section, we will meet the range of the ...
The visual system includes the eye and retina, the optic nerves, and the visual pathways within the brain, where multiple visual centers process information about different aspects (shape and form, color, motion) of visual stimuli.
26 kwi 2021 · We provide a basic overview of MRS principles, and then discuss recent findings in four topics of vision science: (i) visual perception, plasticity in the (ii) healthy and (iii) dysfunctional visual system, and (iv) during visual stimulation.
