Abstract

In this paper, we have proposed a new computer retina model reflecting the mechanism of transient amacrine cell on the basis of a conventional computer retina model to understand mechanism of visual information processing. The conventional computer retina model contained most of mechanism for other retina models and it was verified with the physiological data. However, we found that a conventional computer retina model doesn't have the mechanism of amacrine cell that was likely to respond to moving stimulus. In proposed model, therefore, a conventional computer model that considered from photoreceptors to bipolar cells and a new computer model that considered for transient amacrine cell and ganglion cell was combined. As we compared the physiological data with the results of computer simulation of transient amacrine cell about fixed stimulus and moving stimulus, we confirmed that the proposed new computer retina model was normally operated.
