Visual Cortex

The brain region that processes visual information — V1 through V5, from raw input to complex perception.

The visual cortex is the region of the occipital lobe that processes visual information. It is organized in a hierarchy from V1 (primary) to V5 (MT), each layer extracting more complex features.

Hierarchy (V1–V5)

  • V1 (Primary) — edges, orientation, basic features
  • V2 — contours, texture, simple shapes
  • V3 — form, dynamic form
  • V4 — color, object recognition
  • V5 (MT) — motion, movement vectors

In ONDA Life

Part 7 "Sensorimotor Integration" develops deep processing of contours, shapes, and movement vectors through the visual cortex (V1–V5). We train the ability to isolate key signals from a dense flow of external stimuli.
