Complex gaze stabilization in mantis shrimp [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2018
Almost all animals, regardless of the anatomy of the eyes, require some level of gaze stabilization in order to see the world clearly and without blur. For the mantis shrimp, achieving gaze stabilization is unusually challenging as their eyes have an unprecedented scope for movement in all three rotational degrees of freedom: yaw ...

Efficient gaze stabilization during video Active Gaze Shift Test (vAGST) in bilateral vestibulopathy [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology
IntroductionWhile most head movements in daily life are active, most tools used to assess vestibular deficits rely on passive head movements. A single gain value is not sufficient to quantify gaze stabilization efficiency during active movements in ...

Role of locomotor efference copy in vertebrate gaze stabilization [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2022
Vertebrate locomotion presents a major challenge for maintaining visual acuity due to head movements resulting from the intimate biomechanical coupling with the propulsive musculoskeletal system.

Sensory gaze stabilization in echolocating bats [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2019
Sensing from a moving platform is challenging for both man-made machines and animals. Animals' heads jitter during movement, so if the sensors they carry are not stabilized, any spatial estimation might be biased. Flying animals, like bats, seriously suffer from this problem because flapping flight induces rapid changes in acceleration which moves the ...

Skill-Related Adaptive Modifications of Gaze Stabilization in Elite and Non-Elite Athletes [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Sports and Active Living, 2022
The vestibular ocular reflex (VOR) provides gaze stability during head movements by driving eye movements in a direction opposing head motion. Although vestibular-based rehabilitation strategies are available, it is still unclear whether VOR can be ...

Multisensory gaze stabilization in response to subchronic alteration of vestibular type I hair cells [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2023
The functional complementarity of the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) and optokinetic reflex (OKR) allows for optimal combined gaze stabilization responses (CGR) in light. While sensory substitution has been reported following complete vestibular loss, the

The influence of saccades on yaw gaze stabilization in fly flight. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2023
In a way analogous to human vision, the fruit fly D. melanogaster and many other flying insects generate smooth and saccadic movements to stabilize and shift their gaze in flight, respectively. It has been hypothesized that this combination of continuous

Polarization contrasts and their effect on the gaze stabilization of crustaceans. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Exp Biol, 2021
ABSTRACT Many animals go to great lengths to stabilize their eyes relative to the visual scene and do so to enhance the localization of moving objects and to functionally partition the visual system relative to the outside world. An important cue that is used to control these stabilization movements is contrast within the visual surround.

The Gaze Stabilization Test Following Concussion. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Am Acad Audiol, 2018
Concussion can cause vestibular dysfunction and oculomotor abnormalities which can lead to dizziness and protracted recovery time. There are few clinically useful, functional measures of the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) post-concussion.The purpose of this study was to examine the gaze stabilization test (GST) in those referred for vestibular physical ...
