This is truly awesome. Thanks for sharing. Something tells me that the mechanism for detecting motion could potentially be applied to many other data types. Something to ponder for sure.
What is on or off in the on/off channels? Never mind, it probably means activated or not activated, or the dark vs light distinction for an edge. At any rate, I found this talk very fascinating but it’s way above my level of knowledge in neuroscience.
An interesting lecture. Thank you for sharing it with the world. Question: What happens if the motion in the preferred direction happens to be a simultaneous combination of rightward and upward movements? Will it simultaneously activate layer 1 and layer 3 in the lobula plate?
As I understood it, the highest level features have a linear response, so the response from diagonal movement in T4/T5 should be two distinct responses corresponding to both directions equivalent to slower motion on the orthogonal directions.

@@MGraczykIf I understood you correctly, it would be equivalent to the sum of the x and y components of the diagonal vector?
So, what DOES the fly actually see?
Good work on showing us how complex Gods creation truly is.
