Active head rolls enhance sonar-based auditory localization performance.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2021
Animals utilize a variety of active sensing mechanisms to perceive the world around them. Echolocating bats are an excellent model for the study of active auditory localization. The big brown bat (Eptesicus fuscus), for instance, employs active head roll

The Interaction of Pre-programmed Eye Movements With the Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2018
The Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex (VOR) works to stabilize gaze during unexpected head movements. However, even subjects who lack a VOR (e.g., vestibulopathic patients) can achieve gaze stability during planned head movements by using pre-programmed eye ...

Morph Composition Matters in the Gouldian Finch (Chloebia gouldiae): Involvement of Red-Headed Birds Increases Vigilance

open access: yesBirds, 2021
Animals invest in costly vigilance to detect threats. Joining groups reduces these costs, which can be further reduced in mixed-species assemblages. In colour-polymorphic species, morphs often experience different predation pressure and vary in a variety

Vertical Head Movements Influence Memory Performance for Words With Emotional Content

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2019
Numerous studies have found an association between valence and the vertical dimension of space (good-up, bad-down). This association has also been linked to sensorimotor experiences (e.g., body movements).

Development of a Sensing Platform Based on Hands-Free Interfaces for Controlling Electronic Devices

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022
Hands-free interfaces are essential to people with limited mobility for interacting with biomedical or electronic devices. However, there are not enough sensing platforms that quickly tailor the interface to these users with disabilities.

Somatic modulation of tinnitus: a review and some open questions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Tinnitus modulation by movements of the temporomandibular joint, head and neck musculoskeletal structures and the eye, can be found in one to two thirds of tinnitus sufferers; unfortunately this condition is often overlooked by otolaryngologists ...

Towards understanding nonmanuality: A semiotic treatment of signers’ head movements

open access: yesGlossa, 2019
This article discusses a certain type of nonmanual action, signers’ head movements, from a semiotic perspective. It presents a typology of head movements and their iconic, indexical and symbolic features based on Peircean and post-Peircean semiotics. The

Short-Latency Covert Saccades - The Explanation for Good Dynamic Visual Performance After Unilateral Vestibular Loss?

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: Functional head impulse test (fHIT) tests the ability of the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) to allow visual perception during head movements. Our previous study showed that active head movements to the side with a vestibular lesion generated a
