SANTILLAN, Javier Enrique  e  BARRAZA, José Fernando. Distance perception estimation during locomotion. Psicol. pesq. [online]. 2020, vol.14, n.3, pp.192-205. ISSN 1982-1247.  https://doi.org/10.34019/1982-1247.2020.v14.30415.

In this review article we address the problem of distance perception during locomotion. It implies a mental construction of the environment that surrounds us that must be carried out in a fast and precise way, since this information is crucial to be able to correctly interact with the environment and the objects in it. In much of the time we and the world around us are in a continuous relative movement, so our perceptual experience would be shaped by the complex interactions between the information provided by the senses and by the perception of our movement itself. Trying to acquire distance perception data with the observer in motion implies different requirements to the situation when it is static. This leads to seeking solutions and new methodological alternatives. This is exemplified from the experimental work carried out using the treadmill as a research platform in the open field.
