Visual perception of axes of head rotation

Abstract: Registration of ego-motion is important to accurately navigate through space. Movements of the head and eye relative to space are registered through the vestibular system and optical flow, respectively. Here, we address three questions concerning the visual registration of self-rotation. (1) Eye-in-head movements provide a link between the motion signals received by sensors in the moving eye and sensors in the moving head. How are these signals combined into an ego-rotation percept? We combined optic flow of s… Show more

“…Our observation bolsters an earlier observation (Arnoldussen et al, 2013b ) that perceived self-rotation depends on the rotational flow relative to the head and not relative to the gaze line. That study and the present indicate that the visual flow relative to the head is paramount to the self-motion percept.…”

“…Thus, the strong modulation of optic flow responses by H suggests an important contribution of V3A/V6 to process the speed of the head's movement in depth. This lines up nicely with a previous study concluding that V6 combines retinal rotational motion and eye pursuit signals to indicate the speed of rotation of the head in space rather than rotation speed of the gaze line (Arnoldussen et al, 2011 , 2013b ).…”

“…To our knowledge, there exists no anatomical or functional evidence for a facilitated integration of pitch with yaw versus roll with yaw stimuli. Neither at the level of the vestibular nuclei (Büttner-Ennever, 1992;Highstein & Holstein, 2006;Naito, Newman, Lee, Beykirch, & Honrubia, 1995) nor in the cortex (Arnoldussen, Goossens, & van den Berg, 2013) can the pattern of projections from the semicircular canals account for our findings. Although recordings of neural responses to vertical rotations reveal that roll neurons outnumber pitch neurons in the brain stem (Baker, Goldberg, Hermann, & Peterson, 1984;Bolton et al, 1992;Endo, Thomson, Wilson, Yamaguchi, & Yates, 1995;Kasper, Schor, & Wilson, 1988;Wilson, Yamagata, Yates, Schor, & Nonaka, 1990), optimal activations of cortical vestibular neurons are uniformly distributed over all possible rotation planes (Akbarian et al, 1988;Grüsser, Pause, & Schreiter, 1990).…”

“…Alternatively, there are potential neurological mechanisms for differences in motion processing in migraine -there is increased cortical thickness in areas MT+ and V3A in those with migraine compared to controls (Granziera et al, 2006). These areas are both strongly associated with motion processing, and also with the processing of head movements (Goosens et al, 2006;Arnoldussen et al, 2011;Fisher et al, 2012;Arnoldussen et al, 2013). Imaizumi et al, (2015) used a stabilometer to show that that postural sway is greater in migraine sufferers with eyes closed, compared to eyes open: this is increased on viewing the "rotating snakes illusion", which elicits strong illusory motion in the observer.…”
