Vision Sensory System The eye Exactly what we sense from our __________________________________ Perceptual System The brain How we put together what we sense into a __________________________________ The Visual Sensory System Light is made of waves __________________________________ Different colors have different wavelengths __________________________________ Different amplitudes lead to differences in brightness Visible spectrum __________________________________ ROY G BIV Short wavelengths are near __________________________________ Long wavelengths are near red and orange Properties of Light and Waves The color of an object is determined by its abilities across two dimensions __________________________________ __________________________________ Colors that are reflected are the colors that __________________________________ A red sweater is red because it __________________________________ wavelengths that we perceive as red Other wavelengths would be absorbed and __________________________________ as a color for this sweater Properties of Light and Waves Black is a color that __________________________________ all other colors ie. It is the absence of reflected color White is a color that __________________________________ all other colors ie. It is the presence of all colors prisms Properties of Light and Waves Refraction The __________________________________ of the waves Occurs in water Different substances _______________________________________ The eye Sclera __________________________________that protects the eye and gives it shape Cornea Protective covering for the eye Begins to __________________________________ and focus them Aqueous humor Fluid filled area behind the cornea Provides nutrients to the __________________________________ Parts of the eye Pupil __________________________________ in the center of the eye Controls the amount of light that enters Iris The __________________________________ that controls the __________________________________ of the pupil Lens Bends to __________________________________ onto the retina Accommodation The process of the __________________________________ to properly focus the image on our retina Vitreous humor Gives the eye its shape __________________________________ The vitreous humor your born with is what you still have Floaters Debris that gathers in the vitreous humor and __________________________________ onto the retina Retina Translates _____________________________________________________ our brain can process Concave Object on retina is translated __________________________________ __________________________________ Rods and cones Optic Disk/ __________________________________ Area in the retina where nerves and blood vessels exit the eye Forms a __________________________________ __________________________________ Area in center of retina Layers of the Retina Four main types of visual processing neurons Ganglion cell layer __________________________________ and bipolar cell layer __________________________________ cells Visual Sensory Neurons Photoreceptors __________________________________ Cones Rods and Cones Where a sensory signal (light waves) gets changed into electrical energy Process called __________________________________ Rods Sensitive to __________________________________ Most of them in periphery Cones Sensitive to __________________________________ Most of them in fovea Rods Contain __________________________________ 120 million in a human eye Responsible for night vision Very __________________________________to light Very poor __________________________________ Cones 6 million in the human eye Responsible for vision in bright light __________________________________ 3 different types with different pigments Cones Three different types Blue, __________________________________ __________________________________, medium Red, __________________________________ Horizontal Cells __________________________________ from the photoreceptors Transfer that information to __________________________________ cells Bipolar cells Receive input from __________________________________ cells and __________________________________ Transmit information to amacrine cells Contain receptive fields _______________________________________________________ organization Lateral inhibition Horizontal cells that are activated by light in the “__________________________________” area __________________________________the bipolar cell Amacrine Cells Respond to __________________________________ in the visual environment Connect bipolar cells, __________________________________ cells, and other amacrine cells Ganglion cells Receive input from __________________________________ and amacrine cells Same center-surround receptive fields found in bipolar cells On-center bipolar fields connect to __________________________________ganglion cells Off-center bipolar fields connect to __________________________________ganglion cells What do receptive fields do? On-center and off-center fields provide for greater __________________________________ Large __________________________________surfaces don’t activate the neurons as well as __________________________________surfaces with lines, cracks, and ends Types of Ganglion cells Three types P cells: Parvocellular M cells: Magnocellular Non P or M cells Pathway to the Brain __________________________________ Group of ganglion axons exit the eye __________________________________ (part of the tectum) __________________________________- Lateral Geniculate Nucleus Visual cortex- __________________________________ (MT) Contralateral organization Visual hemifields in space are __________________________________organized Not contralaterally organized by the eyes The Thalamus The __________________________________nucleus (LGN) 6 Layers: Keep much of the information seperated __________________________________ and __________________________________ information go to different layers Non P and M projections go between the other layers Information from each eye goes to __________________________________ Displays retinotopy Primary Visual Cortex Located in the __________________________________ (Occipital Lobe) Also referred to as Striate cortex Brodmann Area __________________________________ V1 Cortical organization of V1 Cells don’t like __________________________________!
