#Psychtoolbox 👀 gaze-contingent paradigms remap visual stimuli in real-time ⏱️ depending on gaze direction. New research uses this method to map visual receptive fields 🧠during natural free viewing. #eyetracking #visionscience #matlab doi.org/10.1038/s41467-023-3…

Detailed characterization of neural selectivity in free viewing primates

Nature Communications - Studying visual processing during natural eye movements in untrained animals is challenging. Here, the authors provide a method for accurately measuring the retinal input to...

Our 👀eyes move constantly – yet we perceive a stable world 🌍. Kroell & Rolfs use eye tracking to show that foveal target processing already begins before the eye movement, potentially stabilising our perception. #matlab #eyetracking #psychtoolbox doi.org/10.7554/eLife.78106

Foveal vision anticipates defining features of eye movement targets

Before a saccadic eye movement to a location in the visual periphery, human observers' foveal vision becomes more sensitive to the features defining the eye movement target, anticipating information...
