Invariant body kinematics: I. Saccadic and compensatory eye movements

نویسنده

  • David Hestenes
چکیده

A new invariant formulation of 3D eye-head kinematics improves on the computational advantages of quaternions. This includes a new formulation of Listing’s Law parameterized by gaze direction leading to an additive rather than a multiplicative saccadic error correction with a gaze vector difference control variable. A completely general formulation of compensatory kinematics characterizes arbitrary rotational and translational motions, vergence computation, and smooth pursuit. The result is an invariant, quantitative formulation of the computational tasks that must be performed by the oculomotor system for accurate 3D gaze control. Some implications for neural network modeling are discussed.

Blink-perturbed saccades in monkey. I. Behavioral analysis.

Saccadic eye movements are thought to be influenced by blinking through premotor interactions, but it is still unclear how. The present paper describes the properties of blink-associated eye movements and quantifies the effect of reflex blinks on the latencies, metrics, and kinematics of saccades in the monkey. In particular, it is examined to what extent the saccadic system accounts for blink-...

Distinct eye movement patterns enhance dynamic visual acuity

Dynamic visual acuity (DVA) is the ability to resolve fine spatial detail in dynamic objects during head fixation, or in static objects during head or body rotation. This ability is important for many activities such as ball sports, and a close relation has been shown between DVA and sports expertise. DVA tasks involve eye movements, yet, it is unclear which aspects of eye movements contribute ...

Kinematics of centrifugal and centripetal saccadic eye movements in man.

The kinematics of centrifugal and centripetal saccadic eye movements were quantified in human subjects. The maximum velocity of centripetal saccades increased with the eccentricity of the orbital starting point and was systematically higher than that of centrifugal saccades starting from primary orbital position. The slope of this linear increase was related to target step amplitude (2.6 and 3....

In several recent studies, saccadic eye movements were found to be influenced by concurrent reaching movements. The authors investigated whether that influence originates in limb kinematic or kinetic signals. To dissociate those 2 possibilities, the authors required participants (N = 6) to generate pointing movements with a mass that either resisted or assisted limb motion. With practice, parti...
