The Navigational System of Birds
The avian navigational system is based on an external reference, giving the home direction as a compass course. When young, inexperienced birds begin to fly, their only available orientation mechanism is a magnetic compass provided by their ability to perceive the geomagnetic field. They navigate by using this compass to record the direction of the outward journey and, by reversing this directi...
متن کاملAging specifically impairs switching to an allocentric navigational strategy
Navigation abilities decline with age, partly due to deficits in numerous component processes. Impaired switching between these various processes (i.e., switching navigational strategies) is also likely to contribute to age-related navigational impairments. We tested young and old participants on a virtual plus maze task (VPM), expecting older participants to exhibit a specific strategy switchi...
متن کاملDevelopment of the navigational system in homing pigeons: increase in complexity of the navigational map.
In the present study we analysed GPS-recorded tracks from pigeons of different ages from 11 sites between 3.6 and 22.1 km from the home loft, which revealed changes in the navigational system as the birds grew older and became more experienced. The efficiency of juveniles in their first year of life, at only 0.27, was rather low, indicating that the young birds covered more than three times the...
متن کاملANTS: Agent-Based Navigational Training System
There is an explosive growth of e-learning trend during the last few years. More and more learning resources are generated by different purposes in the world. How to make the learning resources to be sharable and reusable is a key factor in e-learning environment. This paper presents a system framework of Agent-based Navigational Training System (ANTS) to facilitate lecturers and learners achie...
متن کاملCoding of navigational affordances in the human visual system.
A central component of spatial navigation is determining where one can and cannot go in the immediate environment. We used fMRI to test the hypothesis that the human visual system solves this problem by automatically identifying the navigational affordances of the local scene. Multivoxel pattern analyses showed that a scene-selective region of dorsal occipitoparietal cortex, known as the occipi...
