In the 16 years since we last summarized the behavior of the premotor elements that control
saccades, research has revealed shortcomings in previous formulations of the control …

Primates use two types of voluntary eye movements to track objects of interest: pursuit and
saccades. Traditionally, these two eye movements have been viewed as distinct systems …

Complex visual scenes require that a target for an impending saccadic eye movement be
selected from a larger number of possible targets. We investigated whether changing the …

Many studies have demonstrated the necessity to drive robot displaying natural and
appropriate behaviors in social scenes. In this article, efforts were taken to restore the …

Changing the direction of the line of sight is essential for the visual exploration of our
environment. When the head does not move, re-orientation of the visual axis is …

Much of the central nervous system is involved in visuomotor transformations for goal-
directed gaze and reach movements. These transformations are often described in terms of …

Human saccades may or may not be associated with head movements. To date, little
attention has been devoted to the mechanisms determining head movement recruitment and …

Over the past decade several research groups have taken a renewed interest in the special
role of a type of small eye movement, called 'microsaccades', in various visual processes …

Animals investigate their environments by directing their gaze towards salient stimuli. In the
prevailing view, mouse gaze shifts entail head rotations followed by brainstem-mediated eye …

The superior colliculus (SC) has a topographic map of visual space, but the spatial nature of
its output command for orienting gaze shifts remains unclear. Here we show that the SC …
