Many animals use motion vision information to control dynamic behaviors. For example,
flying insects must decide whether to pursue a prey or not, to avoid a predator, to maintain …

Visual systems transduce, process and transmit light-dependent environmental cues.
Computation of visual features depends on photoreceptor neuron types (PR) present …

The visual neurons of many animals process sensory input differently depending on the
animal's state of locomotion. Now, new work in Drosophila melanogaster shows that …

Speed and acceleration are fundamental components of visual motion that animals can use
to interpret the world. Behavioral studies have established that insects discriminate speed …

Despite their relatively simple nervous systems, insects display a rich behavioural repertoire,
in which vision plays a major role. In the past two years, much knowledge has been gained …

Vision guides flight behaviour in numerous insects. Despite their small brain, insects easily
outperform current man-made autonomous vehicles in many respects. Examples are the …
