It’s fascinating how much of what we experience in the world — from feeling dizzy when we look at the stars to sensing motion even when standing still — comes from our body’s balance system. I recently came across how scientists and clinicians use advanced tools like videonystagmography equipment to study how our eyes and inner ear work together to maintain equilibrium.
It made me wonder — how much of our perception of the universe around us depends on our brain’s interpretation of balance and motion signals?
Do you think human technology will ever fully map how the brain processes these sensations?
