Many insects are able to detect, isolate and track small targets that move quickly against a dynamic background. This ability is enabled by a group of neurons called small target motion detectors (STMD). These neurons, among other properties, have a type of short term memory called response facilitation. This type of facilitation is a phenomenon in which continued visual stimuli lead to an enhance

Thus, the brain should be regarded as a site where imm
