Efficient navigation is supported by a cognitive map of space. The hippocampus plays a key
role for this map by linking multimodal sensory information with spatial memory …

Spatial navigation is a complex cognitive activity that depends on perception, action,
memory, reasoning, and problem-solving. Effective navigation depends on the ability to …

Navigation systems have become increasingly available and more complex over the past
few decades as maps have changed from largely static visual and paper-based …

Immersive virtual reality (VR) allows its users to experience physical space in a non-physical
world. It has developed into a powerful research tool to investigate the neural basis of …

Accumulating evidence suggests that distinct aspects of successful navigation—path
integration, spatial-knowledge acquisition, and navigation strategies—change with …

Successful navigation requires the ability to compute one's location and heading from
incoming multisensory information. Previous work has shown that this multisensory input …

Path integration is a sensorimotor computation that can be used to infer latent dynamical
states by integrating self-motion cues. We studied the influence of sensory observation …

We often assume that travel direction is redundant with head direction, but from first
principles, these two factors provide differing spatial information. Although head direction …

The perception and measurement of spatial and temporal dimensions have been widely
studied. Yet, whether these two dimensions are processed independently is still being …

Aims of the present article are: 1) assessing vestibular contribution to spatial navigation, 2)
exploring how age, global positioning systems (GPS) use, and vestibular navigation …
