Gravity is a physical constraint all terrestrial species have adapted to through evolution.
Indeed, gravity effects are taken into account in many forms of interaction with the …

The visual system is poorly sensitive to arbitrary accelerations, but accurately detects the
effects of gravity on a target motion. Here we review behavioral and neuroimaging data …

We permanently deal with gravity force. Experimental evidences revealed that moving
against gravity strongly differs from moving along the gravity vector. This directional …

Manual interceptions are known to depend critically on integration of visual feedback
information and experience-based predictions of the interceptive event. Within this …

We previously estimated the timing when ball game defenders detect relevant information
through visual input for reacting to an attacker's running direction after a cutting manoeuvre …

In the future, human-like robots will live among people to provide company and help
carrying out tasks in cooperation with humans. These interactions require that robots …

It has recently been suggested that time perception and motor timing are influenced by the
presence of biological movements and animacy in the visual scene. Here, we investigated …

Familiarity with the visual environment affects our expectations about the objects in a scene,
aiding in recognition and interaction. Here we tested whether the familiarity with the specific …

(論文内容の要旨) バスケットボールのような侵入型球技の選手は, 正確な認知能力を有し,
巧みな動きを実行する. これまでの多くの研究においては, 認知と運動制御が別々に研究されてきた …

Skilled players in invasive ballgames such as basketball execute accurate, quick and strong
decision making and motor control. In the ballgame, an attacker with the ball aims for the …
