Gaze strategy in the free flying zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Fast moving animals depend on cues derived from the optic flow on their retina. Optic flow from translational locomotion includes information about the three-dimensional composition of the environment, while optic flow experienced during a rotational ...

Comparing measurements of head motion and centre of pressure for body sway induced by optic flow on a head-mounted display

open access: yesFrontiers in Virtual Reality, 2022
We compared two measures of visually induced body sway—head motion and centre of pressure (CoP)—that were simultaneously measured while observing optic flow on a head-mounted display (HMD).

Functional neuroanatomy of time-to-passage perception [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The time until an approaching object passes the observer is referred to as time-to-passage (TTP). Accurate judgment of TTP is critical for visually guided navigation, such as when walking, riding a bicycle, or driving a car.

Perceiving blurry scenes with translational optic flow, rotational optic flow or combined optic flow

open access: yesVision Research, 2019
Perceiving the spatial layout of objects is crucial in visual scene perception. Optic flow provides information about spatial layout. This information is not affected by image blur because motion detection uses low spatial frequencies in image structure.

Species-specific flight styles of flies are reflected in the response dynamics of a homologue motion sensitive neuron

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2012
Hoverflies and blowflies have distinctly different flight styles. Yet, both species have been shown to structure their flight behaviour in a way that facilitates extraction of 3D information from the image flow on the retina (optic flow).

Integration Mechanisms for Heading Perception [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Previous studies of heading perception suggest that human observers employ spatiotemporal pooling to accommodate noise in optic flow stimuli. Here, we investigated how spatial and temporal integration mechanisms are used for judgments of heading through ...

Larger Head Displacement to Optic Flow Presented in the Lower Visual Field

open access: yesi-Perception, 2019
Optic flow that simulates self-motion often produces postural adjustment. Although literature has suggested that human postural control depends largely on visual inputs from the lower field in the environment, effects of the vertical location of optic ...

Processing of Visual Signals Related to Self-motion in the Cerebellum of Pigeons

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2013
In this paper I describe the key features of optic flow processing in pigeons. Optic flow is the visual motion that occurs across the entire retina as a result of self-motion and is processed by subcortical visual pathways that project to the cerebellum.

Activity Strength within Optic Flow-Sensitive Cortical Regions Is Associated with Visual Path Integration Accuracy in Aged Adults

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2021
Spatial navigation is a cognitive skill fundamental to successful interaction with our environment, and aging is associated with weaknesses in this skill.
