The aim is to review the neurophysiological aspects of eye movement kinematics and their implications for cognitive models.
Comprehensive review of primate studies
Analysis of saccadic and pursuit eye movements
Examination of neural structures in brainstem and cerebellum
Evaluation of gaze direction changes during tracking
Tracking involves both saccadic and pursuit eye movements instead of smooth continuity.
Gaze stability arises from dynamic equilibrium between commands and anti-commands.
Neuronal activity is not symmetrical between left and right hemispheres during eye movements.
