Elegant sensory structures in the inner ear have evolved to measure head motion. These
vestibular receptors consist of highly conserved semicircular canals and otolith organs …

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 …

It is generally accepted that human bipedal upright stance is achieved by feedback
mechanisms that generate an appropriate corrective torque based on body-sway motion …

Because sensory systems often provide ambiguous information, neural processes must exist
to resolve these ambiguities. It is likely that similar neural processes are used by different …

The interaction of different orientation senses contributing to posture control is not well
understood. We therefore performed experiments in which we measured the postural …

We present a multisensory postural control model based on experiments where the balance
in normal subjects and vestibular loss patients was perturbed by application of external …

The sensory weighting model is a general model of sensory integration that consists of three
processing layers. First, each sensor provides the central nervous system (CNS) with …

Research in the vestibular field has revealed the existence of a central process, called
'velocity storage', that is activated by both visual and vestibular rotation cues and is modified …

All linear accelerometers measure gravitoinertial force, which is the sum of gravitational
force (tilt) and inertial force due to linear acceleration (translation). Neural strategies must …

Subjective vertical orientation, eye and body movements, and motion sickness all depend
on the way our central nervous system deals with the gravito-inertial force resolution …
