چکیده

An orientation experiment was carried out in a spatially immersive virtual environment. The task of subjects was to navigate with 6 degrees of freedom flying method through a predefined route guided by visual cues. Simultaneously they should keep the model oriented in upright position as well as possible. In the experiment we had three different implementations of auditory artificial horizon, and for the reference the subjects accomplish the task also without the auditory support. According to the results the auditory artificial horizon helps subjects to keep the model oriented during the task.

Flying by Ear: Blind Flight with a Music-Based Artificial Horizon

Two experiments were conducted in actual flight operations to evaluate an audio artificial horizon display that imposed aircraft attitude information on pilot-selected music. The first experiment examined a pilot’s ability to identify, with vision obscured, a change in aircraft roll or pitch, with and without the audio artificial horizon display. The results suggest that the audio horizon displ...

The responses of horses to predator stimuli

It is not known whether the instincts of wild horses have remained strong during their centuries of domestication. Knowledge of this matter would give riders the opportunity to know more about the behavior of horses and consequently about safety for both horses and riders. In this current research, we studied the behavior of fifteen Caspian miniature horses of different ages and sexes using sti...

Effects of optical pitch on oculomotor control and the perception of target elevation.

In two experiments, we used an ISCAN infrared video system to examine the influence of a pitched visual array on gaze elevation and on judgments of visually perceived eye level. In Experiment 1, subjects attempted to direct their gaze to a relaxed or to a horizontal orientation while they were seated in a room whose walls were pitched at various angles with respect to gravity. Gaze elevation wa...

Using Eye Movement Analysis to Study Auditory Effects on Visual Memory Recall

Recent studies in affective computing are focused on sensing human cognitive context using biosignals. In this study, electrooculography (EOG) was utilized to investigate memory recall accessibility via eye movement patterns. 12 subjects were participated in our experiment wherein pictures from four categories were presented. Each category contained nine pictures of which three were presented t...

White-throated sparrows calibrate their magnetic compass by polarized light cues during both autumn and spring migration.

The interaction and hierarchy of celestial and magnetic compass cues used by migratory songbirds for orientation has long been the topic of an intense debate. We have previously shown that migratory Savannah sparrows, Passerculus sandwichensis, use polarized light cues near the horizon at sunrise and sunset to recalibrate their magnetic compass. Birds exposed to a +/-90 deg. shifted artificial ...
