Is It Me or the Train Moving? Humans Resolve Sensory Conflicts with a Nonlinear Feedback Mechanism in Balance Control

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience
Humans use multiple sensory systems to estimate body orientation in space. Sensory contributions change depending on context. A predominant concept for the underlying multisensory integration (MSI) is the linear summation of weighted inputs from individual sensory systems.
