Vestibular and optokinetic reflexes are classically considered to be the major contributors for maintaining visual acuity during locomotion in vertebrates. Here, we present a computational model of ...

Contrast has an impact on the optokinetic reflex, which enables us to clearly perceive the landscape from a moving train. Researchers from Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitaet (LMU) in Munich have now ...

In these children, the horizontal optokinetic reflex that usually helps us to hold our gaze steady is lost. In about 70% of the cases the culprit has been identified: a gene sitting on the X ...

The optokinetic reflex causes eyes to drift horizontally from side-to-side — for example, as we watch the scenery through a window of a moving train. The vestibulo-ocular reflex adjusts our eye ...

This article describes a method and its system for detecting the pupil based on optokinetic reflex motion without using a binocular camera or a beamforming device and automatically measuring the ...

Previously characterized as blind, these mutants lack an optokinetic reflex (OKR), but in another behavioral assay nrc mutant fish have near-normal responses to the offset of light and slow and ...
