During natural exploration, rats exhibit two particularly conspicuous vibrissal-mediated behaviors: they follow along walls, and "dab" their snouts on the ground at frequencies related to the whisking cycle. In general, the walls and ground may be lo

In all sensory modalities, the data acquired by the nervous system is shaped by the biomechanics, material properties, and the morphology of the peripheral sensory organs. The rat vibrissal (whisker) system is one of the premier models in neuroscienc

Analysis of natural scene statistics has been a powerful approach for understanding neural coding in the auditory and visual systems. In the field of somatosensation, it has been more challenging to quantify the natural tactile scene, in part because

The rat vibrissal system is an important model for the study of somatosensation, but the small size and rapid speed of the vibrissae have precluded measuring precise vibrissal-object contact sequences during behavior. We used a laser light sheet to q

During exploratory behaviors, the velocity of an organism's sensory surfaces can have a pronounced effect on the incoming flow of sensory information. In this study, we quantified variability in the velocity profiles of rat whisking during natural ex

Rats use rhythmic movements of their vibrissae (whiskers) to tactually explore their environment. This “whisking” behavior has generally been reported to be strictly synchronous and symmetric about the snout, and it is thought to be controlled by

Many decisions we make require visually identifying and evaluating numerous alternatives quickly. These usually vary in reward, or value, and in low-level visual properties, such as saliency. Both saliency and value influence the final decision. In p

The vibrissal-trigeminal pathway of the rat has become an increasingly important model in neuroscience to study how sensory and motor signals are encoded, processed, and integrated in the nervous system, ultimately yielding “perception“ of an obj

The importance of active sensing to animals suggests that it may confer significant advantages to engineered sensing systems. The rat vibrissal (whisker) system is an important model for studying tactile active sensing. To date, however, the small si
