Journal ArticleDOI
Active, passive and snapshot exploration in a virtual environment: influence on scene memory, reorientation and path memory
TL;DR: The results suggest that (1) 2D image features from a visual scene are memorized and (2) pointing towards the origin of the path relies on motion duration integration or a frame of reference integrated during displacement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Navigating in a virtual three-dimensional maze: how do egocentric and allocentric reference frames interact?
TL;DR: The second experiment revealed that single rotations in the terrestrial condition must be performed around the body axis in order to obtain optimal spatial updating performance, and that the latter is independent of the conflict with gravity that might favor this condition when one is actually upright.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gravity influences top-down signals in visual processing.

TL;DR: It is found that visually-evoked potentials triggered by the image of a tunnel just prior to an impending 3D movement in a virtual navigation task were altered in weightlessness aboard the International Space Station, while those evoked by a classical 2D-checkerboard were not.
Journal ArticleDOI
Motion Scaling for High-Performance Driving Simulators

TL;DR: The results of four comparable driving experiments indicate a preference for motion scale factors below 1, within a wide range of acceptable values (0.4-0.75).
Journal ArticleDOI
MPI CyberMotion Simulator: Implementation of a Novel Motion Simulator to Investigate Multisensory Path Integration in Three Dimensions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a motion simulator with a large range of motion to assess whether path integration is similar between horizontal and vertical planes, and the relative contributions of inertial and visual cues for path navigation were also assessed.
