bob, Very very interesting! I'm going to pass this around where I work as we've got a hat full of physiologists who may have opinions. Might relate to ballance problems many of us have also. but it doesn't solve the basic difficulty of sensing the location and direction of travel. BTW, Mike

Wow that's way beyond what I would have imagined to be the solution. In the mean while I wonder if there would be some thing as affective and yet much more simple and less costly. Don't get me wrong that is some incredibly intriguing research. To listen to the show archives go to link
