- Cortical cells are orientation detectors
- Simple cells
- React to stimuli (light) along a line
- Respond to flashing and moving edges
- Complex cells
- React to stimuli (light) moving in a specific direction
- Respond to moving edges and are often direction selective
- Hypercomplex cells
- React to stimuli (light) moving in a specific direction, with the right width and height
- Are selective for the length of a moving edge
