Abstract:

This commentary focuses on issues related to Glover's suppositions regarding the information available to the on-line control system and the behavioral consequences of (visual) information disruption. According to the author, a “highly accurate,” yet temporally unstable, visual representation of peripersonal space is available for real-time trajectory corrections. However, no direct evidence is currently available to support the position.
