Figure 8. An interaction between OS and DS sharpens DS tuning.

Figure 8

A schematic summarizing how OS and DS properties of T4 and T5 can combine to narrow directional tuning. A HRC model demonstrates how preferred direction amplification leads to broad directional responses. This tuning can be made narrower by adding OS circuitry that suppresses responses to stimuli that are oriented slightly off axis.
