Eye-Hand Coordination: Spatial Localization after Saccadic and Pursuit Eye Movements

Pages 215-224 | Published online: 14 Jul 2010
 

Abstract

Subjects produced speeded and unspeeded hand movements to a target location after either saccadic or pursuit eye movements to the target. Hand movements began either aligned with the initial position of gaze or from some other location. Subjects generally underestimated the extent of the pursuit eye movements relative to estimates made after saccades. With speeded hand movements, however, the underestimation was reduced considerably if the hand movements began aligned with a location other than the initial position of gaze. The results reveal details of the mechanisms underlying eye-hand coordination and show that important differences exist in the information used for localization for slow and rapid limb movements.
