Looming sensitive cortical regions without V1 input: evidence from a patient with bilateral cortical blindness

Looming sensitive cortical regions without V1 input: evidence from a patient with bilateral cortical blindness

Fast and automatic behavioral responses are required to avoid collision with an approaching stimulus. Accordingly, looming stimuli have been found to be highly salient and efficient attractors of attention due to the implication of potential collision and potential threat.
