Dorsal pathway
The dorsal visual processing pathway is the part of visual information processing that is responsible for the spatial localization of objects and the perception of movement. It transmits visual information from the primary visual cortex (V1) and secondary visual areas (V2, V3) to the parietal lobes, where spatial orientation, motion analysis, and action planning take place.

The visual association cortices are the areas that are not involved in primary visual processing but play a major role in the interpretation and integration of visual information. They process, for example, shape, color, movement, or spatial orientation and forward information along the what pathway (ventral) for object recognition and the where/how pathway (dorsal) for spatial processing and action control.\
