Modular Organization of V1
•
V1 appears to be
organized into modules
•
Each module
receives input from both eyes about one small part of the visual field
•
Input from each
eye is separated into “ocular dominance columns” within the module
•
CO Blobs: color
and low spatial frequency
•
Outside of CO
Blobs: orientation, movement, spatial frequency, texture, binocular disparity
