Face-to-face spatial orientation fine-tunes the brain for neurocognitive processing in conversation [PDF]
Summary: We here demonstrate that face-to-face spatial orientation induces a special ‘social mode’ for neurocognitive processing during conversation, even in the absence of visibility.

Event-Driven Maximum Correntropy Filter Based on Cauchy Kernel for Spatial Orientation Using Gyros/Star Sensor Integration [PDF]
Gyros/star sensor integration provides a potential method to obtain high-accuracy spatial orientation for turntable structures. However, it is subjected to the problem of accuracy loss when the measurement noises become non-Gaussian due to the complex ...

Vibrotactile feedback as a countermeasure for spatial disorientation
Spaceflight can make astronauts susceptible to spatial disorientation which is one of the leading causes of fatal aircraft accidents. In our experiment, blindfolded participants used a joystick to balance themselves while inside a multi-axis rotation ...
