摘要：
We review modelling and experimental work dealing with the mechanisms of generation of electric image. We discuss: (1) the concept of electric image in the context of the reafference principle; (2) how waveform codes an impedance related qualia of the object image, referred to as "electric colour"; (3) that some characteristics of the spatial profiles generated by pre-receptor mechanisms are suitable for edge detection; (4) which parameters of the spatial profiles provide information for distance discrimination; (5) that electric images are distributed representations of the scene.
