Abstract(in English) Geometrically, a pattern of vertical disparity can be used as a cue to know visual direction. However, It has been reposted that vertical disparity does not affect the perception of visual direction. In this study, we investigated whether vertical disparity was used as a cue for visual direction for controlling body movement, in particular head rotation. We presented the stimulus with changing vertical disparity and measured head movement of the subject who observed the stimulus. The result showed that changing vertical disparity produced automatic head rotation in some stimulus conditions. This fact suggests that vertical disparity is used as a cue to know visual direction in the system to control action.
