Glass patterns are visual stimuli used here to study how local orientation signals are
spatially integrated into global pattern perception. We measured a form aftereffect from …

Human visual cortex contains mechanisms that pool local orientation information over large
areas of visual space to support percepts of global form. Initial studies concluded that some …

In the mammalian brain, form and motion are processed through two distinct pathways at
early stages of visual processing. However, recent evidence suggests that these two …

Perception of global structure conveyed in static Glass patterns is difficult, though not
impossible, when the constituent dipoles are formed by partnering opposite polarity dots. We …

We investigated the role of disparity information in the detection of global form. Glass
patterns, which allow insight into processing at both local and global stages of form analysis …

When processing visual information from the surroundings, human vision depends on the
constant integration of form and motion cues. Dynamic Glass patterns (GPs) may be used to …

The human visual system is continuously exposed to a natural environment with static and
moving objects that the visual system needs to continuously integrate and process. Glass …

The ability to perceive complex objects in the environment requires that the visual system
integrate local form information into global shapes. Glass patterns (GPs) are stimuli that are …

To perceive form in complex images the visual system must combine local features that often
differ in contrast and may even have opposite polarity with respect to the background …

Glass (Nature 1969; 223: 578–580) patterns are random dot stimuli that generate a percept
of global structure. To study the mechanisms underlying this global form perception …
