Effects of Altered Haptic Feedback Gain Upon Balance Are Explained by Sensory Conflict Estimation Open
Lightly touching a solid object reduces postural sway. Here, we determine the effect of artificially modifying haptic feedback for balance. Participants stood with their eyes closed, lightly gripping a manipulandum that moved synchronously…

Is it me or the train moving? Humans resolve sensory conflicts with a nonlinear feedback mechanism in balance control Open
Humans use multiple sensory systems to estimate body orientation in space. Sensory contributions change depending on context. A predominant concept for the underlying multisensory integration (MSI) is the linear summation of weighted input…

Improving balance using augmented visual orientation cues: a proof of concept Open
Falls are a major health concern. Existing augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality solutions for fall prevention aim to improve balance in dedicated training sessions. We propose a novel AR prototype as an assistive wearable device to i…

Estimation of the visual contribution to standing balance using virtual reality Open
Sensory perturbations are a valuable tool to assess sensory integration mechanisms underlying balance. Implemented as systems-identification approaches, they can be used to quantitatively assess balance deficits and separate underlying cau…

MoPeDT: A Modular Head-Mounted Display Toolkit to Conduct Peripheral Vision Research Open
Peripheral vision plays a significant role in human perception and orientation. However, its relevance for human-computer interaction, especially head-mounted displays, has not been fully explored yet. In the past, a few specialized applia…

Effects of Noisy Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation on Standing Balance – No Evidence for Stochastic Resonance in Young Healthy Adults Open
Noisy galvanic vestibular stimulation (nGVS) at imperceptible levels has been shown to reduce body sway. This improvement was commonly attributed to the mechanism of stochastic resonance (SR). However, it has never been explicitly tested w…

Virtual reality as a tool for balance research: Eyes open body sway is reproduced in photo-realistic, but not in abstract virtual scenes Open
Virtual reality (VR) technology is commonly used in balance research due to its ability to simulate real world experiences under controlled experimental conditions. However, several studies reported considerable differences in balance beha…

Reductions in body sway responses to a rhythmic support surface tilt perturbation can be caused by other mechanisms than prediction Open
Studies investigating balance control often use external perturbations to probe the system. These perturbations can be administered as randomized, pseudo-randomized, or predictable sequences. As predictability of a given perturbation can a…

Sensory integration of a light touch reference in human standing balance Open
In upright stance, light touch of a space-stationary touch reference reduces spontaneous sway. Moving the reference evokes sway responses which exhibit non-linear behavior that has been attributed to sensory reweighting. Reweighting refers…

Evidence in Support of the Independent Channel Model Describing the Sensorimotor Control of Human Stance Using a Humanoid Robot Open
The Independent Channel (IC) model is a commonly used linear balance control model in the frequency domain to analyze human balance control using system identification and parameter estimation. The IC model is a rudimentary and noise-free …

Sensory reweighting dynamics following removal and addition of visual and proprioceptive cues Open
Removing or adding sensory cues from one sensory system during standing balance causes a change in the contribution of the remaining sensory systems, a process referred to as sensory reweighting. While reweighting changes have been describ…
