Das Reafferenzprinzip. Wechselwirkungen zwischen Zentralnervensystem und Periphase
TL;DR: (~) Wenn man den Strum im Kondensatorkreis um-nittelbar dureh die Spulen Sp~ and Sp~ hindurchsehickt, wird die Phase der Ablenkung des Kathodenstrahlbiindels zur Anfaehung ungeeignet.
Journal ArticleDOI
Homing by path integration in a mammal
Journal ArticleDOI
A New Solution to the Problem of the Subjective Vertical
TL;DR: The predictions of the theory are confirmed experimentally, proving that not only the visual but also the haptic zenith is shifted towards the long axis by strongly correlated amounts, when the head is pitched backwards.
Book ChapterDOI
Homing by Path Integration
TL;DR: The paper presents experimental evidence for homing by path integration in a bird using a mammalian model case and the essentials of a cybernetical theory of this type of navigation are developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Idiothetic navigation in humans: estimation of path length.
TL;DR: In these paradigms path control and perception are mediated by an open-loop performance of the underlying path integration system, calibrated in such a way as to yield veridical estimates during normal walking.
