Looking at Op Art: Gaze Stability and Motion Illusions
i-Perception, 2012 Various Op artists have used simple geometrical patterns to create the illusion of motion in their artwork. One explanation for the observed illusion involves retinal shifts caused by small involuntary eye movements that observers make while they try to maintain fixation.

How Lovebirds Maneuver Rapidly Using Super-Fast Head Saccades and Image Feature Stabilization.
PLoS ONE, 2015 Diurnal flying animals such as birds depend primarily on vision to coordinate their flight path during goal-directed flight tasks. To extract the spatial structure of the surrounding environment, birds are thought to use retinal image motion (optical ...

Effects of saccadic eye movements on postural control stabilization
Motriz: Revista de Educacao Fisica, 2013 Several structures of the central nervous system share involvement in both ocular and postural control, but the visual mechanisms in postural control are still unclear.

Analysis of gaze stabilization during stepping and running.
Nippon Jibiinkoka Gakkai Kaiho, 1985 To investigate the characteristics of the head movements and the mechanisms of gaze, stabilization during walking and running, eye and head movements were recorded in 10 normal subjects and 8 patients with labyrinthine lesions, who repeated stepping (1.OHz) and running (1.5Hz) on the same spot. 1.
