The perception of visual motion is critical for animal navigation, and flies are a prominent
model system for exploring this neural computation. In Drosophila, the T4 cells of the …

The detection of visual motion enables sophisticated animal navigation, and studies on flies
have provided profound insights into the cellular and circuit bases of this neural …

Visual motion cues are used by many animals to guide navigation across a wide range of
environments. Long-standing theoretical models have made predictions about the …

How neurons become sensitive to the direction of visual motion represents a classic
example of neural computation. Two alternative mechanisms have been discussed in the …

How neurons detect the direction of motion is a prime example of neural computation:
Motion vision is found in the visual systems of virtually all sighted animals, it is important for …

Detecting the direction of image motion is a fundamental component of visual computation,
essential for survival of the animal. However, at the level of individual photoreceptors, the …

Visual motion cues provide animals with critical information about their environment and
guide a diverse array of behaviors. The neural circuits that carry out motion estimation …

Background Detecting the direction of visual motion is an essential task of the early visual
system. The Reichardt detector has been proven to be a faithful description of the underlying …

Motion vision is an ancient faculty, critical to many animals in a range of ethological contexts,
the underlying algorithms of which provide central insights into neural computation …

Across animal phyla, motion vision relies on neurons that respond preferentially to stimuli
moving in one, preferred direction over the opposite, null direction. In the elementary motion …
