Insect Vision: Novel Mechanism for Contrast Constancy in Dim Light

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article

Abstract

A general problem of sensory systems is how to simultaneously encode prevailing input as well as deviations from this baseline. A new study shows how the fly visual system has solved this by using parallel processing.
