Roles of visual and non-visual information in the perception of scene-relative object motion during walking.

Abstract:

:Perceiving object motion during self-movement is an essential ability of humans. Previous studies have reported that the visual system can use both visual information (such as optic flow) and non-visual information (such as vestibular, somatosensory, and proprioceptive information) to identify and globally subtract the retinal motion component due to self-movement to recover scene-relative object motion. In this study, we used a motion-nulling method to directly measure and quantify the contribution of visual and non-visual information to the perception of scene-relative object motion during walking. We found that about 50% of the retinal motion component of the probe due to translational self-movement was removed with non-visual information alone and about 80% with visual information alone. With combined visual and non-visual information, the self-movement component was removed almost completely. Although non-visual information played an important role in the removal of self-movement-induced retinal motion, it was associated with decreased precision of probe motion estimates. We conclude that neither non-visual nor visual information alone is sufficient for the accurate perception of scene-relative object motion during walking, which instead requires the integration of both sources of information.
