Document Summary
Chapter 10: vision iii early processing, object perception. How we see things: rgcs: dot detectors, root ganglion cells. Inferior temporal lobe, more and more complex processing: face recognition one of the most complex things we do. Fundamental concept: maps, tonotopic, topographic, systematic organization of neurons relative to some stimulus characteristic, columns, as you go down through the layer of cortex all cells respond to same stimulus. A chunk for face place movement: but technically there are many areas that light up so technically not really just one chunk. Streams/pathways: what pathway (ventrally, what were looking at, where how ( dorsally , where they are and how to use them. In vision first cortical area is vi: then goes ventrally. Identify things: or dorsal, where is this thing and how do we interact. From the lgn massive optic ration to the primary visual cortex. Information from the left half of visual field goes to the right brain: eg.
