Figure Lengend Snippet: Step Saccade Task and Saccade Metrics. During the step saccade task (A), subjects are initially required to fixate a target (T0) for a variable duration within a computer-defined window. If the subject maintains fixation until the end of the “fixation period”, T0 is extinguished and a peripheral target (T1) is presented. The offset of T0 cues the subject to produce a saccade to T1. Saccade peak velocities (B) and durations (C) for saccades with varying amplitudes are plotted for one human subject who performed the step saccade task. Saccades were measured using a video based eye tracking method (EyeLink 1000, SR-Research, Kingston, Ontario). See text for further details.
