The Neural
Control of Vision
L. The Processing of Depth
The fact that stereopsis is processed in several
brain areas has been demonstrated both with single-cell recordings and
with lesions. Many neurons in V1, V2, V4 and MT show tuning for stereoscopic
depth. Figure 56 shows that neither
V4 nor MT lesions cause major deficits in stereopsis. Clearly this capacity
is processed in several areas.
