A Synthetic Nervous System Model of the Insect Optomotor Response

Fig. 2. Raster plots showing the spike times of each neuron (left axis) in each layer in response
to background motion. The red line indicates the angle of the background (right axis). The retina
encodes the motion, the lamina activity follows that of the retina, the left-selective medulla cells
are active during leftward pattern motion, and the right-selective medulla cells are active during
rightward motion. Colors match the anatomy in Fig. 1.
