Abstract: Neurons that respond to lines of a particular orientation form vertical orientation columns, which span the whole depth of the primary visual cortex. These columns are connected by horizontal neurons which, according to a new study, could be used to analyse angular visual features — such as corners or T junctions — that were not previously thought to be analysed at such an early stage of visual processing.
