Stereoscopic vision: solving the correspondence problem.
Neurons in early visual areas respond to horizontal disparity in images that do not give rise to stereopsis. False binocular matches, however, are discarded at the apex of the visual pathway: the activity of neurons in the primate inferior temporal cortex correlates directly with conscious depth perception.
