Invariant formulation of the kinematics of body movement on the visual cliff

Bierschenk, Bernhard LU (2001) In Kognitionsvetenskaplig forskning / Cognitive Science Research
Abstract
This article presents a reanalysis of the caption to the Visual Cliff experiments, which where formulated by Gibson and Walk and presented in Scientific American in 1960. The present experiment is based on non-linear processing. This has required a phase-dependent processing and an exact reproduction of the identified control parameters, which are the periods and fractions, as well as shear and strain. Further fitness values in the form of radians, have been computed and related to the control parameters. Demonstrated is that this is generating a more elastic and fluid form of adaptation, compared to the caption analysis of 1991.
