This work investigates the control of horizontal head movements in the context of unconstrained visually guided head and arm/finger aiming tasks. In a first experiment, the head was free to move while gaze was directed at randomly presented eccentric targets distributed horizontally (0 degrees-120 degrees) at eye level. In a second experiment, the horizontal head orientation was constrained to predetermined positions (0 degrees, 15 degrees, 30 degrees, 45 degrees or 60 degrees rightward) while… CONTINUE READING
