Under natural conditions, visual processes unfold in the incessant
presence of motor behavior, as visually-guided actions contribute
shaping up the input signals to the retina. Active vision, the
study of vision in the context of natural motor behavior, has grown
and expanded greatly in recent years, in part due to advances in
computational power, display technology, and tracking of body
movements. This symposium will focus on the indissoluble bond
between vision and action. It will cover a broad array of tightly
related topics, including: the visual consequences of various types
of body movements, the role of motor activity in extracting and
processing visual information, and the visuomotor strategies for
controlling behaviors such as locomotion, reaching, and grasping. By
bringing together a diverse array of viewpoints and creative
methodological approaches to the study of the visual system in
action, this symposium aims to uncover common principles of
visuomotor computation, identify promising research directions,
disseminate knowledge on recent advances in the field, and attract
and help forming a new generation of researchers.<br>

This is the 32nd symposium of the biennial series organized by The
Center for Visual Science (CVS) at the University of Rochester
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.cvs.rochester.edu">https://www.cvs.rochester.edu</a>). CVS symposia are highly interactive
meetings with a group of invited speakers and an audience of 100-200
participants. Scientific sessions include talks and poster
presentations. Ample time is given for debates of ideas and
hypotheses, with sessions specifically dedicated to general
discussions and a program designed to promote interactions. Because
of their highly interactive nature, CVS symposia provide great
opportunities for students and post-doctoral fellows to engage in
deep discussions with leading scientists in the field.<br>
