La concurrence binoculaire apparaît lorsque chaque œil capte une image différente dans le même secteur du champ visuel. Les organes visuels de bas niveau, dans la partie gauche du cerveau, reçoivent une stimulation issue des deux yeux, mais ne voient que la partie du champ visuel qui est à droite du point de fixation, tandis que du côté droit, seules parviennent les informations provenant de la moitié gauche du champ visuel. Quand les informations provenant des deux yeux, pour une de ces moitiés du champ, sont différentes, on ne voit pas leur superposition, mais alternativement l'une, puis l'autre. 1, record 1, French, - concurrence%20binoculaire
