For example does viewing a rollercoaster ride without any other sensory input cause the brain to generate illusory nonvisual impressions that are consistent with the image. The findings are that there is a strong relationship between vertical vection and perceived weight i.e. if visual input indicates upward motion the viewer feels his or her body is heavier whereas in downward motion the body feels lighter. The findings are said to be particularly relevant to the design of fixed base flight and driving simulation systems.
