A computerized spatial orientation test [PDF]

open access: yesBehavior Research Methods, 2019
In three experiments, we compared performance on a paper-based perspective-taking task (the Spatial Orientation Test [SOT]; Hegarty & Waller, 2004) with performance on a computer-based version of the task. The computer-based version automates scoring angular errors, allows for different stimulus orders to be given to each participant, and allows for ...

CONTROLLING THE MOVEMENT OF HEXACOPTER ALONG THE INTENDED ROUTE WITH ENGINE FAILURE [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Journal of Silesian University of Technology. Series Transport
This article investigates the issue of controlling the movement of a hexacopter-type unmanned aerial vehicle around a route. The movement of the hexacopter is modeled as the motion of a rigid body, taking into account gravitational forces and aerodynamic

Differential Effects of Orientation and Spatial-Frequency Spectra on Visual Unpleasantness

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2020
Increasing psychophysical evidence suggests that specific image features – or statistics – can appear unpleasant or induce visual discomfort in humans. Such unpleasantness tends to be particularly profound if the image’s amplitude spectrum deviates from ...

Spatial orientation under microgravity

open access: yesRinsho Shinkeigaku, 2012
On Earth, humans are constantly exposed to the gravity. During head and body tilts, the otolith organs sense changes in head orientation with respect to the gravitational vertical. These graviceptors also transduce transient linear acceleration generated by translational head motion and centripetal acceleration during rotation about a distant axis ...

The haptic perception of spatial orientations [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Brain Research, 2008
This review examines the isotropy of the perception of spatial orientations in the haptic system. It shows the existence of an oblique effect (i.e., a better perception of vertical and horizontal orientations than oblique orientations) in a spatial plane intrinsic to the haptic system, determined by the gravitational cues and the cognitive resources ...

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

A Multiple-Choice Maze-like Spatial Navigation Task for Humans Implemented in a Real-Space, Multipurpose Circular Arena

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Spatial navigation is a key aspect of human behavior and it is still not completely understood. A number of experimental approaches exist, although most of the published data in the last decades have relied on virtual maze on-screen simulation or not ...
