Visual Response Task

This is a visual response task from the paper:

Pieter R. Roelfsema, Michiel Tolboom and Paul S. Khayat, Different Processing Phases for Features, Figures, and Selective Attention in the Primary Visual Cortex, NeuronVolume 56, Issue 5, , 6 December 2007, Pages 785-792.

In the paper monkey were trained to fixate on the dot in the center. When the background dots start moving, two objects can be identified in front of the background. The monkeys job was to identify the red circle that was inside the object that included the fixation point.
