The posterior parietal cortex (PPC) is a region of the parietal lobe that integrates sensory information for spatial representation, attention, and the planning of actions. It creates and maintains spatial maps.
Key Functions
- •Spatial maps — representation of body and environment
- •Attention — directing attention in space
- •Sensorimotor integration — linking perception to action
- •Body schema — sense of body position and boundaries
In ONDA Life
Part 9 engages the PPC for "assembling spatial maps and placing the image within the environmental context." It synchronizes the mental sketch with the body's physiological response — the vision becomes grounded in space.
