Possible cardiac linked contributions were found in signals taken from an accelerometer located on a person's head. This could provide insight into perceptual thresholds of translational whole body moves of a seated subject. The signal might create a noise floor that could explain why near-constant acceleration perceptual thresholds are seen in blindfolded and seated subjects (where only vestibular input is available) regardless of displacement or velocity of the move.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
