| Abstract(in English) | We can perceive rotation angle of the whole body rotation eve in total darkness.The output signal of the canal,which is the head velocity signal and is the only signal representing head rotation, is supposed to be integrated by a neural network to obtain the head position signal. We found experimentally that the subjects could perceive the head rotation angle with a surprisingly linear relation to actual head rotation angle. We also found that the time constant of the change of perceptual head rotation angle,which was responsive to a stepwise stimulus of chair(head)velocity,was reflecting the cupula time constant of the semicircular canal,but a little longer than that. Three facts support the idea of hypothesizing a neural integrator which converts the head velocity signal to the head position signal. |
