  1. The contributions of proprioceptive pitch and roll to visual tilt-induced effects for active and passive observers. Jennifer E. Corbett & James T. Enns The University of British Columbia 6/4/04

  2. Vision and proprioception calibrate our sense of upright.

  3. Vision and proprioception calibrate our sense of upright. • We rely on: • Visual orientation cues

  4. Vision and proprioception calibrate our sense of upright. • We rely on: • Visual orientation cues

  5. Vision and proprioception calibrate our sense of upright. • We rely on: • Visual orientation cues • & • Proprioception

  6. Vision and proprioception calibrate our sense of upright. • We rely on: • Visual orientation cues • & • Proprioception

  7. Vision and proprioception calibrate our sense of upright. • We rely on: • Visual orientation cues • & • Proprioception To determine our perceptions of upright.

  8. A fun example: Mystery Spots

  9. Mystery Spots Vision

  10. Mystery Spots Vision + Proprioception

  20. In the present study… How does rolling and pitching the observer interact with visual orientation cues to produce observers’ perceptions of upright? Pitch Roll

  21. Introduction

  22. Introduction • (Asch & Witkin, 1948)

  23. Introduction • (Asch & Witkin, 1948) True vertical

  24. Introduction • (Asch & Witkin, 1948) Visual tilt True vertical

  25. Introduction • (Asch & Witkin, 1948):Tilt-induced effects Perceived vertical Visual tilt True vertical

  26. Introduction • (Witkin & Asch, 1948): Tilting observers increases • tilt-induced effects.

  27. Introduction • (Witkin & Asch, 1948): Tilting observers increases • tilt-induced effects. Untilted observers

  28. < Tilt-induced effects Introduction • (Witkin & Asch, 1948): Tilting observers increases • tilt-induced effects. Untilted observers Congruently tilted observers

  29. < < Tilt-induced effects Tilt-induced effects Introduction • (Witkin & Asch, 1948): Tilting observers increases • tilt-induced effects. Untilted observers Congruently tilted observers Incongruently tilted observers

  30. < < Tilt-induced effects Tilt-induced effects Introduction • (Witkin & Asch, 1948): Tilting observers increases • tilt-induced effects. Untilted observers Congruently tilted observers Incongruently tilted observers 0.8o

  31. Introduction • (Witkin & Asch, 1948): Tilting observers increases tilt-induced effects. Q1. What really happens to tilt-induced effects when observers are tilted?

  32. Introduction • (Nelson & Prinzmetal, 2003): In vision, pitch and roll • are additive.

  33. Introduction • (Nelson & Prinzmetal, 2003): In vision, pitch and roll are additive. Q2. Do pitch and roll of the observer independently/ interactively influence visual-tilt induced effects?

  34. Introduction Q3. Does it matter whether observers are actively maintaining an upright posture on a tilted surface or whether they are passively tilted?

  35. Summary of research questions

  36. Summary of research questions Q1. Are visual tilt-induced effects really greater for tilted observers? For incongruently tilted observers?

  37. Summary of research questions Q1. Are visual tilt-induced effects really greater for tilted observers? For incongruently tilted observers? Q2. Do pitch and roll of the observer independently/interactively influence visual-tilt induced effects?

  38. Summary of research questions Q1. Are visual tilt-induced effects really greater for tilted observers? For incongruently tilted observers? Q2. Do pitch and roll of the observer independently/interactively influence visual-tilt induced effects? Q3. Do observers actively maintaining an upright posture on a tilted surface experience the same degree of visual tilt-induced effects as passively- tilted observers?

  39. Apparatus for visual tilt-induced effects

  40. Apparatus for visual tilt-induced effects A Rod-Frame box

  41. Apparatus for visual tilt-induced effects A Rod-Frame box rolled 20o along the roll axis

  42. Apparatus for visual tilt-induced effects A Rod-Frame box rolled 20o along the roll axis produced standard visual-tilt induced effects.

  43. Perceptual measure “Say when the rod is vertical with respect to gravity”

  44. Perceptual measure Angle of illusion

  45. Perceptual measure A 10o illusion in rod adjustment:

  46. Perceptual measure A 10o illusion in rod adjustment:

  47. Perceptual measure A 10o illusion in rod adjustment:

  48. Active observers • Tilted platform

  49. Active observers • Tilted platform + standing observer

  50. Active observers • Tilted platform + standing observer • Platform rotates to pitch and roll observer.
