Journal ArticleDOI

Posterior parietal association cortex of the monkey: command functions for operations within extrapersonal space

TL;DR: A large proportion of area 5 neurons were relatively insensitive to passive joint rotations, as compared with similar neurons of the postcentral gyrus, but were driven to high rates of discharge when the same joint was rotated during an active movement of the animal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Grasping objects: the cortical mechanisms of visuomotor transformation

TL;DR: In humans, neuropsychological studies of patients with lesions to the parietal lobule confirm that primitive shape characteristics of an object for grasping are analyzed in theParietal lobe, and also demonstrate that this 'pragmatic' analysis of objects is separated from the 'semantic' analysis performed in the temporal lobe.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selectivity for the shape, size, and orientation of objects for grasping in neurons of monkey parietal area AIP.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the visual responses of object- type neurons represent the shape, size, and/or orientation of 3D objects, whereas those of the nonobject-type neurons probably represent theshape of the handgrip, grip size, or hand-orientation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neural Mechanisms of Visual Guidance of Hand Action in the Parietal Cortex of the Monkey

TL;DR: A conceptual model of the system for visual guidance of hand action including parietal hand manipulation neurons is proposed, suggesting that these neurons play an important role in matching the pattern of hand movement to the visuo-spatial characteristics of the object to be manipulated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parietal cortex neurons of the monkey related to the visual guidance of hand movement

TL;DR: The results suggest that the hand-movement-related neurons of the parietal cortex are concerned with the visual guidance of the hand movement, especially in matching the pattern of movement with the spatial characteristics of the object to be manipulated.
