The 3 semicircular canals (SCC) (lateral,
posterior, and anterior) respond to angular acceleration and are
orthogonal with respect to each other. This is achieved
by planetary gears that compensate for the angular acceleration and
align the payoff roller to the braid point. The vestibular stimuli
applied in this study were repetitive short-duration rotatory movements
(stepwise angular accelerations, clockwise [CW] and counterclockwise
[CCW] in consecutive trials) of the subject's entire body around a
vertical axis, The onset of the positive acceleration served as a
trigger impulse for averaging the EEG segments. |
