As the head turns, visual information flows past the eye.
Every time you open your eyes, visual information flows into your brain, which interprets what you're seeing.
After early activation of the occipital area, the complexity of representation of visual information increases as information flows to the anterior regions of the VVS, with the TP located at the end of the stream and sending backward facilitatory projections to the occipital cortex to optimize sensory processing (e.g., improve perception and learning) [35, 36].
Recent studies revealed that foragers estimate flight distance using a visually-driven 'odometer' based on the amount of 'optic flow' (the flow of visual information that crossed the visual field) that they perceive during the foraging flight [6], [7].
Superimposed on the switch-like motif, the behavior often included smaller saccades (100 300 ms; cf. Figs. S3 and S6), possibly as attempts to stabilize, or enhance [30], visual information in the optic flow field from the same direction.
The fact that we found a significant correlation between the accuracy of theta phase-locking during learning and behavioral performance suggests a relationship between synaptic plasticity in downstream areas and efficient information flow in visual cortex to facilitate learning.
One, that with the unedited flow of visual information now streaming through the internet, "concerned photography" has both a weaker, and potentially more powerful, presence than ever.
It appears simply as an unexpected change in the flow of visual information from the cameras that the robot uses to see with.
On the other hand, at least in theory, the visual depth between two rooms or portions of space reveals the degree of visual connection and possible flow of visual information between them.
In many cases, we find it possible to trace the flow of visual information through several "circuits" in striate cortex that have, as their output, projections to extrastriate cortex or to the brainstem.
