Reliability of the Dynavision task in virtual reality to explore visuomotor phenotypes
Abstract Daily-life behaviors strongly rely on visuomotor integration, a complex sensorimotor process with obvious plasticity. Visual-perceptive and visual-cognitive functions are degraded by neurological disorders and brain damage, but are improved by vision training, e.g. in athletes. Hence, devel...

Abstract Daily-life behaviors strongly rely on visuomotor integration, a complex sensorimotor process with obvious plasticity.
