Saccades are ballistic eye movements made 2-4 times a second while viewing a visual scene. They change object locations on the retina and visual information relayed to the cortex, yet do not interfere with a stable percept. A mechanism by which the visual cortex accomplishes this visual continuity is predictive remapping of receptive fields (RF) of neurons: neurons across visual and oculomotor areas predictively respond to visual stimuli that will appear in their receptive field after an impending saccade. This update of visual representations is mediated by an efferent motor-to-sensory signal
