Description: This resource contains to MATLAB code to make and show videos that can be acquired for free. Data for the movies came from a Macaque attention task. Data on this page came from the multiple-object tracking attention task in a Macaque: The monkeys fixated the white dot at the center of the computer monitor, and four striped stimuli appeared. Their eye position was monitored using an IR camera. The red cross shows where the eyes were pointing throughout each trial. The circle shows the location of the receptive field of the neuron under study during the recording. At the beginning of each trial, either one or two of the stimuli were highlighted, indicating to the monkey that they were the targets of attention. The stimuli then moved to new locations and paused, with one stimulus in the receptive field. After a brief pause, they moved to new locations and the fixation point disappeared. The monkey was rewarded with juice if it then looked at the cued targets. Attention Dask Demo (Avi File) contains Matlab code to make and show movies.
