Assessing gaze behavior during real-world tasks is difficult; dynamic bodies moving through dynamic worlds make gaze analysis difficult. Current approaches involve laborious coding of pupil positions. In settings where motion capture and mobile eye tracking are used concurrently in naturalistic tasks, it is critical that data collection be simple,...

Assessing gaze behaviour during real-world tasks is difficult; dynamic bodies moving through dynamic worlds make finding gaze fixations challenging. Current approaches involve laborious coding of pupil positions overlaid on video. One solution is to combine eye tracking with motion tracking to generate 3D gaze vectors. When combined with tracked or...

Everyday tasks such as catching a ball appear effortless, but in fact require complex interactions and tight temporal coordination between the brain’s visual and motor systems. What makes such interceptive actions particularly impressive is the capacity of the brain to account for temporal delays in the central nervous system—a limitation that can...

Previc (1990) postulated that most peri-personal space interactions occurred in the lower visual field (LVF), leading to an advantage when compared to the upper visual field (UVF). It is not clear if extensive practice can affect the difference between interactions in the LVF/UVF. We tested male and female basketball varsity athletes and non-athlet...

In the target article "Cognition Beyond Representation: Varieties of Situated Cognition in Animals," Ken Cheng describes situated cognition as a "genus" of ideas and effects whereby cognition extends beyond the central nervous system of an organism to include its peripheral nervous system and/or the environment. Although Cheng's article focuses spe...

Many salient visual events tend to coincide with auditory events, such as seeing and hearing a car pass by. Information from the visual and auditory senses can be used to create a stable percept of the stimulus. Having access to related coincident visual and auditory information can help for spatial tasks such as localization. However not all visua...
