In cats, 131 area 18 units with receptive fields 10-50 degrees from the visual axis, were recorded and tested with moving stimuli. These stimuli included light slits, dark bars, single edges, gratings and a random square pattern. 94% of the units were responsive to visual motion. 106 neurones could
The activity of retinal ganglion cells and cortical cells with overlapping receptive fields was simultaneously recorded. The responses to moving stimuli of individual simple cortical cells could be accounted for on the basis of the cell receiving either on-centre or off-centre afferents; instances i
