Is lower peripheral information weighted differently as a function of step number during step climbing
TLDR
The findings suggest that online peripheral visual information is more relevant when negotiating the first two steps, rather than the end of a staircase and that the steps subsequent the first few ones may require different information likely based on proprioception or working memory of the step height.About:

A role for the lower visual field information in stair climbing.
TL;DR: Restriction in the lower visual field during stair walking results in more cautious locomotor behaviour such as walking slower and using the handrails, which may elevate the risk for missteps and falls.

TL;DR: Results from the gaze vector analysis revealed the turn of the gaze toward the handrail placement and toward the stair treads, suggesting a wider awareness of the safety facility and a stronger need of the foot placement control during advanced phases of pregnancy.

Loads on the Knee Joint Ligaments during Stair Climbing
TL;DR: In this article , a dynamic musculoskeletal model was used to analyse the relationship between ligament loads and muscle forces during stair climbing, and the most loaded ligaments were the posterior cruciate ligament and the deep fibres of the medial collateral ligament.
Journal ArticleDOI
Where do people look when walking up and down familiar staircases?
TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated gaze when walking up and down staircases within one's own house and found that people often looked at the steps sequentially, but found that they often made fixations back to steps they had already fixated.

Stair ascent and descent at different inclinations
TL;DR: Findings suggest that there is a certain inclination angle or angular range where subjects do switch between a level walking and a stair walking gait pattern, and no definite signs could be found indicating thatthere is an adaptation or shift in the motor patterns when moving from level to stair walking.

Understanding the roles of vision in the control of human locomotion
TL;DR: This review focuses on advances in the understanding of the roles played by vision in the control of human locomotion as well as effects of various visual deficits on adaptive control.
Review article Understanding the roles of vision in the control of human locomotion
TL;DR: The role of visual perception in the control of human locomotion is discussed in this article, where the authors focus on advances in our understanding of the roles played by vision in the controlling of human motion.

How Is Human Gait Controlled by Vision
TL;DR: In this article, visual exteroceptive information about the environment is used in a sampled, feed-forward mode to control locomotion and self-motion is used to control selfmotion.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of distant and on-line visual information on the control of approach phase and step over an obstacle during locomotion
TL;DR: It is suggested that the expected proprioceptive feedback information associated with the limb posture before the obstacle, reconstructed using visual memory from dynamic sampling of the environment, mismatched with those from the actual limb position.
