This article considers the intersensory interaction mechanisms and biomechanical aspects
of human spatially oriented behavior and asks to what extent these are interrelated on earth …

Spatial updating is the means by which we keep track of the locations of objects in space
even as we move. Four decades of research have shown that humans and non-human …

Perceptual updating of the location of visual targets in space after intervening eye, head or
trunk movements requires an interaction between several afferent signals (visual …

The saccade generator updates memorized target representations for saccades during eye
and head movements. Here, we tested if proprioceptive feedback from the arm can also …

Humans localize sounds by comparing inputs across the two ears, resulting in a head-
centered representation of sound-source position. When the head moves, information about …

Key points• The semicircular canals of the labyrinths are a source of information for self‐
motion perception and reflex eye movements.• Prolonged vestibular asymmetric stimulation …

During a shift of gaze, an object can move along with gaze or stay fixed in the world. To
examine the effect of an object's reference frame on spatial working memory, we trained …

Vestibular functions are known to show some deterioration with age. Vestibular deterioration
is often thought to be compensated for by an increase in neck proprioceptive gain. We …

The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that optimal activation of both the
semicircular canals and the otoliths provides reliable vestibular cues about self-orientation …

The human spatial orientation system is highly complex and nonlinear. It is difficult,
therefore, to arrive at an unequivocal model of the underlying processing by merely …
