This research explores how the brain transforms visual information into motor commands for grasping objects. By studying specific brain areas in macaques, it aims to understand the neural mechanisms behind object manipulation, potentially informing robotic applications.
Humans and other primates possess an exquisite capacity to grasp and manipulate objects.
The seemingly effortless interaction with objects in everyday life is subserved by a number of cortical areas of the visual and the motor system.
Recent research has highlighted that dorsal stream areas in the posterior parietal cortex are involved in object processing.
Because parietal lesions do not impair object recognition, the encoding of object shape in posterior parietal cortex is considered to be imp…
