Research Abstract |
In primates, the refined mechanism is indispensable to maintain postural stability during a transition from dynamic situation to quasi-static situation. In this study, we investigated the effects of visual optic flow stimulation created by virtual environment on head displacement and eye movements during gait termination in younger and older human adults. In younger subjects, the significant head displacement was observed during visual stimulation. The adaptation and habituation of the displacement occurred to visual stimulation during repeated trials. The significant head displacement was not observed in older subjects. It is suggested that the process of gait termination in older subjects is less susceptible to visual stimulation.
