Extended Data 5. Spontaneous traveling waves are present during normal viewing of naturalistic visual scenes.

Extended Data 5.

Marmosets freely viewed static natural images for 10 seconds while head-fixed. (a) An example high contrast image with the gaze of the marmoset over the 10 second viewing interval shown in red. (b) An example of a spontaneous traveling wave detected during a period of fixation while monkey T was freely viewing a high contrast image. (c) Across 86 trials, 593 spontaneous traveling waves were detected during spontaneous fixations while the monkey freely viewed the images (−50 to +100 ms perisaccadic activity excluded). (c) The density of observed wave speeds was consistent with the conduction velocity of unmyelinated axons (0.1–0.6 m/s).
