OCH2 and the arrangement of the optic lobe neuropils. (A) A hypothetical tandem arrangement (left) compared with the actual en face arrangement (right) of the optic lobe neuropils. The en face arrangement has more possible pathways between the neuropils as well as between the optic lobe and the central brain. (B) Two examples of information integration in the fly’s visual system accomplished by parallel information processing in multiple neuropils. The translational motion-processing pathway implements an OR operation, whereas the looming pathway implements an AND operation with the optic lobe neurons.
