Egocentric organization of spatial activities in imagined navigation.
Studies on spatial frameworks suggest that the way we locate objects in imagined environments is influenced by the physical and functional properties of the world and our body. The present study provides evidence that such an influence also characterizes imagined navigation. In Experiment 1, participants followed spatial directions to construct an imagined path, while either keeping constant or...
متن کاملSpatial Cognition: Grid Cells Support Imagined Navigation
Grid cells in the entorhinal cortex represent an animal's current location during navigation. A new study indicates that grid cells in humans also represent information about imagined movement and spatial orienting, suggesting that the entorhinal network has a flexible role in spatial representation.
متن کاملToward Egocentric Navigation
A method for egocentric navigation of mobile robots is described. Each robot has a local short-term memory structure called the Sensory Egosphere (SES), which is indexed by azimuth, elevation, and time. Directional sensory processing modules write information on the SES at the location corresponding to the source direction. Each robot has a partial map of its operational area that it has receiv...
متن کاملUpdating egocentric representations in human navigation.
Seven experiments tested whether human navigation depends on enduring representations, or on momentary egocentric representations that are updated as one moves. Human subjects pointed to unseen targets, either while remaining oriented or after they had been disoriented by self-rotation. Disorientation reduced not only the absolute accuracy of pointing to all objects ('heading error') but also t...
متن کاملGrid-like Processing of Imagined Navigation
Grid cells in the entorhinal cortex (EC) of rodents [1] and humans [2] fire in a hexagonally distributed spatially periodic manner. In concert with other spatial cells in the medial temporal lobe (MTL) [3-6], they provide a representation of our location within an environment [7, 8] and are specifically thought to allow the represented location to be updated by self-motion [9]. Grid-like signal...
